Competencies Working Group Rosalyn Scott, M.D., Wright State University; Tim Willet M.D., CRI Critical Care Education Network, Co-Chairs [email protected] Leveraging Competency Frameworks How Standards Might Be Leveraged http://www.medbiq.org/working_groups/ competencies/index.html Health professions educators are increasingly identifying the outcomes expected of the educational process, and specialty boards are implementing continuous measurement of professional competence. The Scottish Doctor Learning Outcomes, the ACGME Core Competencies, and the Institute of International Medical Education’s Essential requirements are just a few examples of competency frameworks that are driving education and being implemented and tracked within curricula. A Standards-based Approach Currently few software systems allow educators to link curricular activities and resources to a separate competency framework. A standard format [bul list?] for competency data would enable the exchange of competency frameworks among assessment and educating organizations. FIX as well as the incorporation of competency frameworks into curriculum management systems. This will allow developers to implement the competencies by linking curricular activities and resources to competencies. In addition, a competency standard would allow for the development of portfolio systems allowing a learner to view their completed activities against a list of required competencies.

Finding Items Associated with a Competency and Generating Reports Detailing how Competencies are Addressed in the Curriculum Survey Results The working group has circulated a survey to determine common requirements for a competency framework. 24 responses were received for the survey. 75% of organizations surveyed are already delivering competencybased learning or planning to do so. Respondents reported that they would consider using technology standards to support competency-based education and assessment for a broad range of contexts. 78.3% of respondents indicated that they would find technology standards useful or somewhat useful.
