How does curriculum mapping work in Medtrics?

Objectives live at four levels: global, program, course, and session. Medtrics suggests links between levels with an alignment score and a rationale. Faculty approve, adjust, or reject them. Coverage, gaps, and the evidence chain update from the approved links, so the map stays current as courses change.

Can Medtrics find gaps in our curriculum?

Yes. A health view lists orphan objectives with no parent, dead ends with no child, and sessions with no objectives, each with a link to the screen that fixes it. The coverage matrix counts every pair with zero mapped coverage. The evidence view flags program-level objectives whose chain is incomplete or unapproved. Keyword coverage shows where a topic rests on a single session and where the same content repeats across courses.

Does Medtrics support the AAMC Curriculum Inventory?

The AAMC is no longer collecting curriculum mapping data through the Curriculum Inventory Portal; the vocabulary and the Curriculum Inventory standard remain available for schools and vendors. Medtrics uses that vocabulary for instructional and assessment methods, including the method details introduced in the AAMC's educational methods update, keeps course, session, and objective codes within the AAMC character limits, and exports your curriculum inventory as a spreadsheet for review. There is no portal file to produce anymore; what remains is a shared language, and your inventory speaks it.

Can AI help with curriculum mapping?

Yes, with a person deciding. Medtrics proposes objective-to-objective links and keyword tags, each with a score and a written rationale. Faculty review and approve them, one at a time or a whole course at once, in the platform or through an expiring review link. That is how accreditors expect curriculum evidence to be maintained: by the people who teach it, with the record to show it.

We are not an MD program. Does this work for nursing, veterinary, PA, or residency curricula?

Yes. The same mapping runs against CCNE and ACEN outcomes and the AACN Essentials, AVMA COE Day One Competencies, ARC-PA, CAPTE, ACOTE, and ACPE standards, and ACGME milestones and EPAs. Terminology, levels, and reports follow your program, not a physician-centric template.

How do we get our existing spreadsheets in?

Through the imports hub, with templates for objectives, courses, sessions, and keyword sets, in the order the data depends on. Your Medtrics team cleans and loads the files with you as part of implementation.

Platform · Curriculum mapping

Curriculum management that's ready before the site visit is.

Map every course, session, and objective to the standards your accreditor asks about. Medtrics suggests the links. Your faculty approve them. The map stays current as you teach, not in a six-week scramble before the visit.

What we believe

Matching sentences is not mapping a curriculum.

Curriculum mapping is a reading job. Read a session objective, read a course objective, decide whether they belong together, write it down, repeat a few thousand times. Then do it again next year. We built this part of Medtrics around four beliefs.

Faculty should never have to match two sentences together again.
Reading two objectives and judging how well they align is exactly what AI is good at. Deciding whether the link is right is exactly what faculty are good at. Medtrics splits the work that way, and never the other way around.
A dean should be able to answer "where do we teach this?" before the question is finished.
Not after three weeks of cross-referencing, and not from memory.
A student should know what they are supposed to walk out knowing.
Every session carries its objectives, so the question has an answer before the lecture starts.
Nobody should map alone.
Your Medtrics team loads your curriculum, runs the first pass, and sits with your faculty through the approvals.

The chain

One chain, from the session to the standard

Your faculty already create the data every time they teach: session objectives, methods, materials, assessments. Medtrics connects it.

Session objectives map to course objectives. Course objectives map to program objectives. Program objectives map to the standards you are held to. One chain, maintained as you go, readable in both directions: up to prove the standard, down to find the session that teaches it.

How it works

Load the curriculum. Medtrics suggests the links. Faculty approve.

Your faculty already create the data every time they teach. Medtrics connects it, then stays for the visit.

01
Import your curriculum.
Your Impact Engineer loads objectives, courses, sessions, and keyword sets from your files, in the order the data depends on, and cleans what needs cleaning with you.
02
Medtrics suggests the links.
Medtrics scores the candidate links between each level. Every suggested link comes with an alignment score out of ten and a written rationale. Nothing is mapped until a person approves it.
03
Faculty approve. You export.
Review links go out to faculty; approvals come back on record. Export the coverage matrix, mappings, sessions, and the curriculum inventory as spreadsheets, traceable from each standard back to the session that teaches it.

Your curriculum inventory should survive a survey visit without three weeks of panic.

See coverage in one grid.

The coverage matrix shows what share of each session's objectives has approved mappings to each course, with counts for full coverage and for zero coverage, search, and Excel export. Switch the rows and columns between session, course, program, and standard to ask the question the way your committee asks it.

Find the topics no course owns.

Load a content outline as a keyword set and the coverage map shows every system against every course. Keyword coverage shows where a topic rests on a single session and where the same content repeats across courses. Look at approved links only, or include the suggestions faculty have not reviewed yet.

Prove strength, not just presence.

The evidence view scores each program-level objective on how complete its chain is and how much of it is approved. Objectives at risk show in red. Click one and the full chain opens, down to the sessions that teach it.

Catch orphans and dead ends before a reviewer does.

A health view lists orphan objectives with no parent, dead ends with no child, and sessions with no objectives, each with a link to the screen that fixes it.

What your Medtrics team does here: your Impact Engineer loads the curriculum and keyword sets from your spreadsheets. Your Academic Strategist reads the first coverage map with your committee and turns the red cells into a plan before the self-study starts.

For faculty and course directors

You should never have to match two sentences together again.

Medtrics reads both objectives and proposes the link.

Medtrics scores the candidate links between each level. Every suggested link comes with an alignment score out of ten and a written rationale you can read. Nothing is mapped until a person approves it.
