2 What is an LIC? Longitudinal integrated clerkships (LICs) have the following common core elements: Medical students participate in the comprehensive care of patients over time Medical students have continuing learning relationships with these patient’s clinicians Medical students meet, through these experiences, the majority of the year’s core clinical competencies across multiple disciplines simultaneously. (Consortium of Longitudinal Integrated Clerkships, 2007)
