What are the pros and cons of requiring postgraduate residency training as an entry-level practice requirement?
Abstract
Postgraduate residency training would produce better trained optometrists to meet the future needs of optometry. While residency training would expose a new graduate to experience that may take years to acquire, currently there is no mechanism in place to accommodate such a program.
