IntroductionThe Surgical Council on Resident Education (SCORE) has presented a workshop annually at the annual meeting of the Association of Program Directors (APDS) to discuss the evolution of the SCORE portal and best practices for implementation within residency training programs.Methods/ResultsA review of the literature was undertaken, along with a summation of discussion at these several workshops. A history of the SCORE project and a summary of its organizational framework and content are presented. In addition, best practices for use of SCORE within programs are described.ConclusionsThe SCORE portal is now a decade old, and is used ubiquitously in US surgical training programs. With this experience, there is data to show the utility of SCORE to support trainee learning and programmatic didactics.
