The Aquifer Psychiatry Case Set covers the Association of Directors of Medical Student Education in Psychiatry Learning Goals and Milestones.

Overview

Aquifer Psychiatry builds clinical competency, fills educational gaps, and helps instill the core values and attitudes of psychiatry. The case set fosters self-directed and independent study, develops clinical problem-solving skills, and teaches an evidence-based, patient-centered approach to patient care.

The initial case set covers multiple topics, including psychosis, ADHD, OCD, and more. Additional cases will be released on a rolling basis throughout the academic year.

For Academic Year 2025-26, this case set is only available for Curricular Partner programs. In Academic Year 2026-27, it will be available for limited subscribers as a Signature Course.

Key Features

  • Created for educators, by educators, and covers the ADMSEP Learning Goals and Milestones.
  • Proven pedagogy that standardizes experiences—overcoming geography, seasonality, and accessibility
  • Evidence-based, peer-reviewed, and continuously updated content
  • A wealth of source material—including embedded engagement questions and full references—in each case
  • Delivered via the Aqueduct teaching and learning platform, which includes user management tools, easy reporting on student progress and course usage, plus tools for creating custom courses to match a specific curriculum

Curriculum Integration

We designed the Aquifer Psychiatry Case Set for any level student in a health professions program. The cases are ideal for students preparing for clinical experiences that cover Psychiatry. Cases also serve as valuable reference material for students to return to as they need to refresh their knowledge during clinical rotations.
