While clinicians who personalize their EMR workflows have improved efficiency and satisfaction, personalization techniques are underutilized. A one-hour EMR personalization workshop was delivered to internal medicine residents. Signal, an EMR audit-log database, tracked personalization metrics of 26 workshop-participants and 49 non-participants from July through November 2023. Participants had a significant increase in Proficiency Score of 1.28 (p<.01, 95% CI [0.69, 1.88]) and non-participants did not. EMR personalization workshops can augment residency training curricula.
