AETCOM Training
at JZMU, China (2013)
Challenge:
Medical students often lacked hands-on clinical experience and structured mentorship early in their training, impacting their readiness for patient interaction and professional development.
Our Approach:
We supported JZMU in implementing a multi-layered curriculum reform including:
Early Clinical Exposure (ECE)
Integrated as part of a Longitudinal Clinical Experience, offering students real-world clinical interactions from early stages of training.
Near-Peer Mentorship Program (NPMP)
Embedded within the SNACS/SPECS support program, connecting junior learners with trained senior peers for academic and emotional support.
AETCOM
Training
Focused on Attitude, Ethics, and
Communication, delivered through
Case-Based Learning (CBL) with
interactive roleplaying to enhance
professional behaviors and empathy.
Impact:
Students developed clinical confidence, communication skills, and ethical reasoning while experiencing sustained mentorship throughout their learning journey.
