Since 1997, the AAP Annual Survey of Graduating Residents has monitored residents' training and job search experiences.
- A random sample of third-year pediatrics residents is surveyed as they complete training each year.
- The core survey asks residents about their training experiences, career intentions, and job search experiences.
- A new topic, such as health literacy and patient communication, is also explored each year.
The AAP appreciates the many residents who have responded to the Annual Survey of Graduating Residents.
