T-Res is a web application that helps trainees, medical students, as well as fellows keep track of their clinical activities. The T-Res app is also available for IOS and Android devices.
This guide will show you how to work with the T-Res web application. You can find the T-Res tutorials for the iPhone App here and the Android App here. If you want to use T-Res on an iPad please check this link here.
Disclaimer:
Each University program that uses T-Res has its own specified setup. So the fields that you see here would have different contents for other programs and these are just an example of how T-Res functions in general.
The T-Res Web Application
After your program director adds your name to the server you will receive a Welcome Email with a link to the log-in page, where you can activate your account.
ATTENTION: If you cannot find the Welcome Email in your email box, make sure to check your Spam/Junk folder as well. Sometimes the University servers might block the email, so make sure that the IT department of the school has white-listed the t-res.com domain.
Activate your account
- In the Welcome Email click on the link to activate your account.
- Choose a new password.
- Click on Activate Account.
- Type your name in the name field on the agreement page.
- Check the box on the agreement page.
- Click on Proceed.
The first page you will see will be the “News” page.
However, you will be majorly working with the “Activity” section.
On the top, you will see a “Create new Activity” button and a “View activities” button.
Create new activity: is for entering a particular encounter. For example, a certain clinical procedure accomplished or viewed by the student.
View activities: allows you to see past activities that you had entered into the system.

At the very top, you will see “Activity Type” which will offer a selection of different activities available to your program. Based on the program that you chose you will get the relevant form.
- Select the activity that you want.

- The fields with a red asterisk * next to them are mandatory to be filled. And you will not be able to save your activity until you fill in those fields.
Private Note: There’s always a private note area at the bottom of every activity. This note is not visible to anyone but you. It is totally private and secure and you can use it to leave private personal notes.
- After filling out all fields you can click on:
- Save: This will save your activity.
- Save and New: this will save your activity and create a new activity window for you, based on the activity type that you had selected before. So can start from a blank slate.
- Save and Duplicate: this will save your activity and also make an exact copy of the activity that you were working on, with the same entries. It helps to make quickly multiple similar activities.

You can also customize the order the columns are placed by simply clicking and dragging them to where you want. If you click on the customize columns button, you can also choose the columns that you want to be shown or hidden. Once you are happy with your changes click on the DONE button.

Customizing Columns
Edit an existing activity: In order to edit an existing activity you should click on the Edit button. Then you can make changes to your past activity as well and save it.
If the activity that you are changing has already been evaluated by the preceptor, he/she will get a notification that this activity has been changed and will need to evaluate it again.

If you want to find a specific activity you can use the filters to narrow down your search. The Filters section is also customizable.
Exporting an activity file:
You can also download a copy of the activities that you entered as well so that your data is not locked into the application. To do this hover your cursor on the Export: Selected Columns, by default you can extract your data as to how you see it on the view activities page. Alternatively, you will have the option to Export: Essential Columns or Export: All Columns.
Once you select and click on the preferred extraction type, you will see a message saying "Your export is ready. Click to download". After you click on the said message, your data will be downloaded to your device.
