DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a competing continuation application for an Occupational Medicine Residency training program at the University of Pennsylvania. Since its inception in 1997, the program has graduated 70 Practicum Year Occupational Medicine Residents to address the critical national need for occupational physicians, 8 residents are currently in training. A NIOSH Training Grant has helped support the program since July 1998. We have delivered practicum year training for physicians from other fields of medicine, making a mid-career shift to Occupational Medicine. The program structure is unique and successful: trainees may obtain supervised clinical training in qualified external practice locations, or at the University of Pennsylvania Health System. Trainees obtain required professional competencies through five subject-area rotations with didactic education: resident before and after self-assessments of their level of competence; Certifying Examinations, demonstrate the program's success. For this renewal we additionally plan to take advantage of recent developments that have created a rich resource for research training and faculty development at the University of Pennsylvania to address the critical national need for physician researchers who have excellent skills both in occupational medicine practice and in research. Each year we will train one physician through an MPH degree, the subject area rotations, and supervised clinical training at the University of Pennsylvania, with an emphasis on research development. The objective will be to train these physicians to successfully compete for subsequent research career development opportunities. Our program is committed to the recruitment of underrepresented minorities into advanced practice and research training opportunities. Relevance. We will continue to train 8 physicians per year (40 over 5 years) to address the critical need for trained Occupational Medicine physicians who work in industry, government and clinical facilities to address Occupational Health issues important to the health of the workforce, including in underserved locations and populations. We will also train 1 physician per year (5 over 5 years) to meet the critical national need for physician researchers and academics with skills in occupational medicine practice and research, who are competitive for subsequent research training opportunities. At present graduation rates we are the largest civilian US Occupational Medicine residency graduating ~ 7 percent of the newly certified Occupational Physicians.

描述(由申请人提供)：这是宾夕法尼亚大学职业医学住院医师培训项目的竞争延续申请。该计划自1997年启动以来，已毕业70名实习年职业医学住院医师，以满足国家对职业医生的迫切需求，目前有8名住院医师正在接受培训。自1998年7月以来，NIOSH的一笔培训补助金帮助支持了该计划。我们已经为来自其他医学领域的医生提供了实习年的培训，使职业生涯中期转向职业医学。该计划的结构独特而成功：学员可以在合格的外部执业地点或宾夕法尼亚大学卫生系统获得受监督的临床培训。受训者通过五个学科领域的轮换和教学教育获得所需的专业能力：实习人员在自我评估他们的能力水平之前和之后；认证考试，证明计划的成功。对于此次续签，我们还计划利用宾夕法尼亚大学为研究培训和教师发展创造了丰富资源的最新发展，以满足全国对在职业医学实践和研究方面都拥有出色技能的内科研究人员的迫切需求。每年，我们将在宾夕法尼亚大学通过公共卫生硕士学位、学科领域轮换和监督临床培训培训一名医生，重点是研究开发。其目标将是培训这些医生，使他们能够成功地竞争后续的研究职业发展机会。我们的计划致力于招募代表性不足的少数族裔进入高级实践和研究培训机会。 关联性。我们将继续每年培训8名医生(5年内培训40名)，以满足对在工业、政府和临床设施工作的训练有素的职业医学医生的迫切需求，以解决对劳动力健康至关重要的职业健康问题，包括在服务不足的地点和人口。我们还将每年培训1名医生(5名在5年内)，以满足国家对具有职业医学实践和研究技能的医生研究人员和学者的关键需求，他们在后续研究培训机会方面具有竞争力。目前，我们的毕业率是美国最大的平民职业医学住院医师，毕业人数约占新认证职业医生的7%。
