The specialized medical training program aims to equip medical fellows with a deeper understanding of IBD through innovative teaching methods, including virtual roundtable discussions, peer mentorship, and team-based learning. The integration of Entrustable Professional Activities into the training ensures a standardized approach to professional development.
