The Student Physician Coach will be assigned a group of students to oversee throughout their medical school curriculum and will be responsible for monitoring academic and professionalism progression, coaching students through professional identity formation, helping them navigate academic challenges, and developing them as empathetic scholars. The Student Physician Coach plays a critical role in overseeing students’ progression through the Longitudinal Integrated Clerkship (LIC), ensuring that, across the clerkships, students meet the expected milestones and learning objectives for each clerkship. The Student Physician Coach educates and tracks student professionalism, fosters professional identity formation, supports academic progress, and supports the wellness of each assigned student. Student Physician Coaches ensure comprehensive achievement of all clerkship objectives, recognize strengths, and identify areas for improvement to optimally foster professional identity development.
