Half or more CRs lack confidence to independently determine their own worth, find a job, negotiate a contract, select disability insurance, and formulate retirement plans. PDs recognize that education in several nonclinical topics is essential for surgical residents. CRs and PDs agree on the necessity for formal education on all topics except “Burnout” (P
