“…Several faculties have begun to address this problem. Already in 1999 , the "Institut für Hausarztmedizin" in Basel had implemented so-called "Einzeltutoriat", an opportunity for medical students to work with practicing primary care physician [13]. Lausanne and Zürich have had for several years a chair and an Institute for General Practice.…”

For several years, all five medical faculties of Switzerland have embarked on a reform of their training curricula for two reasons: first, according to a new federal act issued in 2006 by the administration of the confederation, faculties needed to meet international standards in terms of content and pedagogic approaches; second, all Swiss universities and thus all medical faculties had to adapt the structure of their curriculum to the frame and principles which govern the Bologna process. This process is the result of the Bologna Declaration of June 1999 which proposes and requires a series of reforms to make European Higher Education more compatible and comparable, more competitive and more attractive for Europeans students. The present paper reviews some of the results achieved in the field, focusing on several issues such as the shortage of physicians and primary care practitioners, the importance of public health, community medicine and medical humanities, and the implementation of new training approaches including e-learning and simulation. In the future, faculties should work on several specific challenges such as: students' mobility, the improvement of students' autonomy and critical thinking as well as their generic and specific skills and finally a reflection on how to improve the attractiveness of the academic career, for physicians of both sexes.

“…During their clinical practice, dental students are expected to learn from a variety of sources, including the clinical procedures and the interaction with the dental professionals, the technicians, the patients, and the fellow students. The clinical teachers and dental students often interact on a one-to-one basis, a relationship that has traditionally been one of the most common methods of education [1,2]. However, this process may not adequately prepare the student for professional practice, especially because the clinical learning environment at the university often differs from the daily routine in the dental practice.…”

The goal for dental students of a university-based program should be to learn about practice procedures in a dental office as part of their studies in order to gain insight into day-to-day activities, such as organizational management, patient communication, and problem-solving strategies. All dental students from the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Dresden in Germany, who completed a one-week internship in an external dental office in the last year before taking the final exam, were invited to participate in the survey (total n = 182 in years 2017–2019 and 2022). After completing the internship, the students were asked to anonymously rate the distinctive competencies they had acquired during their dental studies in terms of clinical and social communication skills. The results of the survey showed a good practicability of the acquired dental knowledge and a general satisfaction of students during their internships. No significant influence of the COVID-19 outbreak and the resulting special regulations in dental practices during the pandemic on student satisfaction was found. Students were more satisfied with their completed internships in smaller cities. Therefore, a stronger inclusion of practices outside the big cities should be considered in the current implementation of the new Dental Licensure Act in Germany.

Switzerland is facing a shortage of general practitioners. This has led to the implementation of specific vocational trainings for future general practitioners. The aim of our study was to compose an overview of the actual programs. Vocational training in general practice programs are increasing, while specific curricula for general practice are still scarce. Specific programs such as short-term rotation enabling to adapt specialized skills for general practice should be implemented to a greater extent. Existing and future programs should be regularly evaluated and the results need to be published.
