Fellows and educators preferred FC learning over traditional didactics and reported that FCs facilitated creation of a learning community, fostering active learning. The favorable response toward this pilot project and the feasibility of its use supports further development of a standardized NPM physiology curriculum for fellowship training.

On the basis of the perspective of front line educators, graduating pediatric residents are underprepared for subspecialty fellowship training in NPM. To provide the best preparation for pediatric graduates who pursue advanced training, changes to residency education to address deficiencies in these important competencies are warranted.
