Abstract: course knowledge of genetics and genomics of residents was assessed using 50 pre-validated multiple-choice questions (MCQs).Finally, Likert-scale surveys evaluated residents' attitudes, knowledge and ethical perceptions toward PM and satisfaction with the course. | WHAT LESSONS WERE LEARNED?Twenty (71%) residents completed all three levels of the assessment and evaluation.Residents' knowledge assessment showed a learning gain of 48% in pre-post MCQs upon completion.Learners showed positive attitudes toward the adoption of PM.About 83% of respondents agreed to be willing to use a patient's genetic information in clinical practice.Very few (9%) were confident to use PM-based approaches; moreover, 43% of respondents agreed that disclosure of genetic information could lead to discrimination and social stigma.Residents were satisfied with the course of PM (95%), but the major challenge was accessing Moodle (45%).Conclusively, we learned that involving various stakeholders, scheduling and planning are essential for project implementation success, considering residents' busy routines.We also noticed that it is a mandatory pre-requisite to provide knowledge of basic genomic concepts for a better understanding of PM.Lastly, multiple communication channels should be developed for reminders of teaching and assessment sessions.
