Assessment Tools for CBME and the Core Outcomes Webinar

Competency Based Medical Education (CBME) emphasizes frequent, low-stakes assessments incorporating direct observation. This shift in paradigm will require many programs to make adjustments to their assessment process. This webinar will identify several workplace-based assessment tools and strategies for direct observation. We will introduce assessment tools from the STFM CBME Taskforce and discuss a proposed pilot for use of a mobile app. Our focus will be on assessment methods already in use and new ones that can be readily implemented. Upon completion of this session, participants should be able to: Identify at least two assessments tools already in place in their programs that could be used to address the new Core Outcomes. Identify additional assessment tools from the STFM Taskforce that can be incorporated in their home programs. Describe the benefits of workplace-based assessment and direct observation tools. Update their assessment systems to include more workplace-based assessment using direct observation. Panelists: Olivia Rae Wright, MD Velyn Wu, MD
