Medical Trainee Matching

Stable matching of trainees to clinical institutions using the Roth–Peranson (deferred acceptance) algorithm.

1. Prepare your files

You need two CSV files. Identifiers are treated as text, so leading zeros (e.g. 017) are preserved.

Trainee preferences

record_id — the trainee's unique id
one column per preference rank (e.g. train_pref_01, train_pref_02, …) holding the clinic record_id for that rank
leave a cell blank (or 0) for no preference

record_id	train_pref_01	train_pref_02
017	c1	c2
099	c2

Clinic preferences

record_id — the clinic's unique id
no_post — number of available posts (whole number)
one column per preference rank (e.g. inst_pref_01, …) holding the trainee record_id for that rank

record_id	no_post	inst_pref_01	inst_pref_02
c1	2	017	099
c2	1	099

No duplicate record_ids within a file.
No clinic/trainee listed twice in the same preference list.
Every preference must reference an id that exists in the other file.

2. Upload & check
