• Contact Information and Responsibilities

• Office of Education Team

This information is collected in order to create your Yale University profile, set-up your 'yale.edu' email, and establish your HR/payroll record. Your fellowship coordinator should have already been in touch with you about this form. If you haven't already done so, please complete it and submit it to your fellowship coordinator (see contacts tab).

• Download the New Fellow Information Form

The University will be conducting a background check on all University-paid fellows before you begin your training. In order for us to start that process, we need a current email address. Your fellowship coordinator should have already been in touch with you about this matter. If you haven't already done so, please submit your email address to your fellowship coordinator (see contacts tab).

Once the background check process has been initiated, you will be contacted directly by the company, HireRight, Inc. When completing the background check form, for education, please list only your medical school.

You will receive hard copies of these forms during orientation and will be asked to fill them out during one of your orientation sessions. If you are able to complete these forms ahead of time and bring them to orientation, that would be very much appreciated (and will save time during orientation). The forms are below.

• Emergency Contact Information Form
• Resident Work Hour Compliance Attestation
• Life Insurance Beneficiary Form
• Moonlighting Compliance Attestation

Overview schedules will be sent by email from your fellowship coordinator.
