5. Barriers and Solutions (1)
BARRIER SOLUTION
Lack of integration of the
competencies across the
educational continuum
Association of American Medical Colleges (2006):
ââeach of the ACGME competencies is appropriate for
undergraduate medical education, some in greater depth than
othersââ
American Board of Medical Specialties:
incorporated the competencies into conceptual framework for
MOC

2. American Board of Pediatrics. Understanding Maintenance of Certificationâ MOC. Available at: https://www.abp.org/ABPWebStatic/#murl%3Dresfellows.htm. Accessed July 9, 2010.
6. Barriers and Solutions (2)
BARRIER SOLUTION
Lack of understanding of how the knowledge,
skills, and attitudes (KSA) needed to perform
these complex tasks develop over time.
Milestone Project (ACGME):
⢠Allow specialties to identify the behaviors and
attributes that describe the competencies
⢠Attention to performance standards, at the
completion of each year of residency training.
⢠For example: Pediatrics milestones*

7. Barriers and Solutions (3)
BARRIER SOLUTION
Perception of a lack of applicability
to âreal worldâ / âreal timeâ practice
(competencies are isolated and
somewhat superficial add-ons to
training requirements)
Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs)
⢠âRoutine professional-life activities of physicians based on
their specialty and subspecialtyâ
⢠Framing the 6 ACGME competencies within the clinical
context of an EPA = Potential âbridgeâ
⢠Aligns with ââdoesââ in Millerâs pyramid.

8. Barriers and Solutions (4)
BARRIER SOLUTION
Challenge of meaningfully assessing
the competencies
⢠Complexity and
⢠Limited reliable and valid tools.
Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs)
⢠Concept of ââentrustmentââ
ââA practitioner has demonstrated the necessary KSA to be
trusted to independently perform this activityâ
(ââwithout direct supervisionâ)
⢠More meaningful feedback and assessment
Hicks P. Pediatrics Milestones Project: the approach to and progress in construction of developmentally anchored milestones. J Grad Med Educ. 2010;2(3):410â418.
9. Competency based Education:
Progression from Novice to competent to master level
⢠Competency:
⢠Observable behaviors that result from the integration of knowledge, attitudes and psychomotor
skills.
⢠Milestones: (Systems needs vs learner needs, Outcomes-defined, time-variable)
⢠Behavioral descriptions of the developmental progression (roadmap) of the KSA that define
each of the sub-competencies within the broader competency domain.
⢠Inform learners of current condition and required KSA to progress to the next level(s).
⢠Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs):
⢠The point at which the learner has demonstrated an activity at the level that no longer requires
direct supervision.
⢠Specific milestones must be reached for entrustment to occur.

14. ⢠The time has come to reach
beyond the âstandardsâ of the old
adage âsee one, do one, teach
oneâ in medical education
⢠Once proficient or expert, a
statement of awarded
responsibility (STAR) may be
granted.
EPAs for teachers in Medical Education
15. EPAs for Final Year Medical
Students

21. Key messages
⢠Medical Education is clearly moving to standardize the competency
language used across the continuum from medical student to practicing
physician.
⢠Milestones are developmental roadmap for attaining competencies are
outcome-defined but time variable.
⢠EPAs are used to demonstrate activities that can be done without direct
supervision by effectively using workplace assessment tools.
