ObjectiveSuccessfully teaching duty hour restricted trainees demands engaging learning opportunities. Our surgical educational website and its associated assets were assessed to understand how such a resource was being used.DesignOur website was accessible to all Mayo Clinic employees via the internal web network. Website access data from April 2015 through October 2016 were retrospectively collected using Piwik.SettingAcademic, tertiary care referral center with a large general surgery training program. Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN.ParticipantsA total of 257 Mayo Clinic employees used the website.ResultsThe website had 48,794 views from 6313 visits by 257 users who spent an average of 14 ± 11 minutes on the website. Our website houses 295 videos, 51 interactive modules, 14 educational documents, and 7 flashcard tutorials. The most popular content type was videos, with a total of 30,864 views. The most popular visiting time of the day was between 8 pm and 9 pm with 6358 views (13%), and Thursday was the most popular day with 17,907 views (37%).  A total of 78% of users accessed content beyond the homepage. Average visits peaked in relation to 2 components of our curriculum: a 240% increase one day before our biannual intern simulation assessments, and a 61% increase one day before our weekly conducted Friday simulation sessions. Interns who rotated on the service of the staff surgeon who actively endorses the website had 93% more actions per visit as compared to other users. The highest clicks were on the home banner for our weekly simulation session pre-emptive videos, followed by "groin anatomy," and "TEP hernia repair" videos.ConclusionsOur website acted as a "just-in-time" accessible portal to reliable surgical information. It supplemented the time sensitive educational needs of our learners by serving as a heavily used adjunct to 3 components of our surgical education curriculum: weekly simulation sessions, biannual assessments, and clinical rotations.
