At the largest surgical training institution in Ethiopia, a trauma training program was developed, integrated into the existing surgical curriculum, and implemented. This study was conducted to evaluate the trainees\u2019 response to the new program.Methods: Over a 5-month period, 35 first-year surgical residents participated in weekly trauma care training sessions. The program included journal clubs, practical sessions, didactic sessions, and case-based discussions. Six months after the conclusion of the training, changes in knowledge, attitude, and practices were evaluated through a self-report survey.Results: For knowledge-based items, the survey data revealed reported improvements in 83.8% to 96.8% of students. Furthermore, 90.3% to 93.5% of participants indicated improvements in practice, while 96.7% exhibited a change in attitude. Respondents reported that attending didactic courses improved their presentation skills and facilitated the acquisition of knowledge. They suggested the inclusion of additional practical sessions.Conclusions: Training structures that are simple to implement are crucial for residency programs with limited resources. Such programs can be developed using existing academic staff and can aid residents in delivering improved care to trauma patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.20408\/jti.2024.0010","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,19]],"date-time":"2024-06-19T04:47:28Z","timestamp":1718772448000},"page":"132-139","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.20408\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Implementation
