| Abstract: | Introduction: In recent months we have witnessed an update of the residents training program and the regulation of important training aspects. Teaching units are an important aspect of the training process, which should be required to comply with the prerequisites adapted to changing times as a guarantee of quality.; Aim: To identify areas for improvement in training, and the baseline resources of the units to deal with the implementation of the new training program.; Material and Methods: The study was carried out in all units with accredited educational programs in the Valencian Community with questionnaires answered by tutors and residents, and meetings held with them.; Results: The participation rate was high (100% of tutors and 92% of residents). Some deficiencies in the requirements of the surgical units and in the quality of the training felt by the residents are detected, mainly in the research and educational activity fields. Huge differences between hospitals are found.; Conclusions: More attention must be paid to fulfilling all the requirements needed for the accreditation of the teaching units, with an emphasis on educational and research activities. The implementation of the new training program requires monitoring to minimise the differences found between the units. |
