What is Triple Board Training?
-
Triple Board residents spend 5 years in an integrated training program focused on pediatrics, general psychiatry, and child and adolescent psychiatry. At the end of the training, residents are board-eligible in all three disciplines.
-
Triple Board graduates apply a developmentally informed, biopsychosocial approach to their work in health, illness, and prevention.
-
The training provides a foundation for excellence in clinical care, education, advocacy, public policy, and research.
-
Most importantly, Triple Board training transcends the traditional boundaries between pediatrics and psychiatry to allow graduates to optimize the medical care of children, adults, and families.
