Abstract

Introduction: Medical Education proposed by the traditional curriculum of universities is insufficient for quality professional training. Thus, it is clear that, despite the development of different spheres and skills in leadership by the individual being essential, the aforementioned grid still persists in medical schools. In order to promote a change in this reality, this paper reports the experience of students from the first period of medicine who managed to develop these skills through positions in different areas of activity. Experience report: On the subject of remote education, medicine freshmen decided to work in leadership and management of people in areas of action in a student organization. Areas such as Capacity Building, Administration, Marketing, Research and Activities in Medical Education and Human Rights and Peace were related to the performance of each of the freshmen through educational interventions and activities, in order to meet the demands of other students linked to this organization, supplementing the regular curriculum. Discussion: The exclusively hospital-centered and technical medical curriculum becomes insufficient for a quality Medical Education. Therefore the participation in extracurricular activities becomes essential as a complement to the professional's training. Thus, developing leadership skills and abilities and encouraging different activities can not only provide personal development, but also allow for an exchange of knowledge between students and the population involved in the activities, in addition to providing professional development from the beginning of graduation. Conclusion: Based on the experience of this report, students were able to develop leadership skills and acquire essential responsibilities to medical training since the first period of medical school. Therefore, the description of the experience of this work encourages the reproducibility of similar initiatives that can contribute to quality medical training for future health professionals.
