The Transition to Clerkship (TTC310Y) course strives to assist students in developing the knowledge, skills and attitudes they require to successfully transition from their role as a student in the Foundations curriculum, to a member of the healthcare team as a clinical clerk. The course builds on the very substantial learning from the first two years of the MD program and provides students with the opportunity to immerse themselves in the skills required to begin their clerkship rotations. TTC is delivered using both virtual and in-person teaching. Learning events take place on campus as well as at academies and consist of large and small group interactive learning sessions, immersion and shadowing experiences, as well as registration tasks (e.g. mask-fit testing, computer systems training) and practical skills (order writing, managing violent patients).
