Council of Emergency Medicine Residency Directors Standardized Letter of Recommendation Writers' Questionnaire

Abstract

The CORD SLOR has become the primary tool used by EM faculty to evaluate candidates applying for residency in EM. The SLOR has been in use in the EM community for 16 years. However, our study has identified some problems with its use. Those issues may be overcome with a revised format for the SLOR and with faculty training in the writing and use of this document.
