Curriculum Management & Curriculum Mapping Best Practices
A Practical Guide for Medical Schools and Health Professions Programs
Curriculum management for Medical Schools and Health Professions Programs has never been more complex—or more critical. That’s why we created the Curriculum Management & Curriculum Mapping Best Practices Guide—a comprehensive resource to help your team build a transparent, adaptable, and accreditation-ready curriculum.
Why It Matters
Medical education leaders are being asked to do more with less:
- Meet new accreditation standards (LCME, CACMS, COCA)
- Support competency-based education models
- Enable longitudinal assessment and program-level reporting
- Reduce the administrative burden on staff and faculty
A well-managed curriculum and a robust curriculum map are foundational to all of this.
This guide will show you how to build a system that works for your team—not just for compliance, but for real curricular improvement.
