Competency Based Medical Education
Lessons from the Trenches - The Basics
Rob Anderson Christina Tremblay Catherine Cervin
Northern Constellations March 28, 2015
Today's Learning Objectives
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:• Describe the two models of CBME that are
being implemented in Canada: CFPC competency assessment program and RCPSC competency by design.
• Build an assessment framework which will support the use of milestones, entrustable professional activities, and skill dimensions.

Development of The Evaluation Objectives
• Asked to describe competence in terms of:
– Patient problems and situations– Clinical decision making and judgment– Other qualities and behaviours– Problem areas
Survey Results / Further Definition • 99 Topics
• 6 Skill Dimensions : Clinical Reasoning, Selectivity, Patient Centered Approach, Communication, Professionalism, Procedural/Psychomotor Skills
• 8 Phases of the Clinical encounter : History, Physical, hypothesis, Investigation, Diagnosis, Management, Referral, Follow-up
Further Definition of TopicsKey Features
• Definition- The critical steps in the resolution of a problem. Focused on the points where we are most likely to make errors and the areas that are the most difficult in practice.
Skills – Procedural• Decision to act- consider indications,
contraindications, your skills and context ( that day and time ability ), context of the procedure
• Informed Consent• Preparation: Review - anatomy, sequential
technical steps. potential complications and their management, appropriate equipment
• During Procedure: Keep patient informed (decrease anxiety), ensure comfort and safety
• If problems reevaluate ( ? Stop ? Ask for help)
• Aftercare/Follow-up

Levels of competence:
Low levels one well-defined taskdone repeatedly
the same way
High levels multiple tasks, ambiguous,uncertain end-points, partial data,
knows how and why, can justifycan abstract to new situations
Task 1: Picking a competency
• Work with your table to define:• A population• An observable behavior/task• Timeline of success
• For example: Anesthesia residents inserting a labor epidural in a healthy parturient by the end of 2nd year of residency.
“I am not interested in Competency Based Education”
Direct quote from Nov 2011 NOSM anesthesia retreat
slide presented byRob Anderson!
What Changed?
• CanMEDs 2015• Time free “softened” to time as a
resource. • ICRE 2012/13• Workshops (Sherbino and UofT)• CFPC SIFP Working group• Unmatched desire to not have to
completely rebuild … ever!
LESSON # 1: DON’T WORRY ABOUT THE EVOLVING DEFINITIONS…THEY WILL JUST TELL US!
Definitions relevant to CBD
• Entrustable Professional Activities (EPA): • A task in the clinical setting that may be
delegated to a resident by their supervisor once competence has been demonstrated
• Milestones: • An observable marker of an individual’s
ability along a developmental continuum
Competency by Design - Lots of Change!
• Increased resident ownership• Mainport ePortfolio• De-emphasize examinations• New accreditation structure• Competency committees and
coaches• Competency frameworks “Back
Office” vs “Front Office”
Back Office
• Comprehensive set of milestones created through a set of workshops at the specialty committee
• Defines what it means to be a competent physician
• Map to EPAs and assessments
• Define duration and content of stages
Front Office
• EPAs and specific milestone assessments
• Each EPA integrates multiple milestones
• Aggregated by ePortfolio• Bank of assessments that have
been identified for the programs• Implementing them is the key!
Early EPA discussion
• We do this anyway!• Assess what is important, not
everything• Multiple milestones captured per
EPA• Key milestones captured across
multiple EPAs
Labor Analgesia in the Healthy Parturient
Competency Committees
• Promotion is resident driven!• Demonstrate that they have met
the bar• The bar must be clear• EPAs, set by the specialty
committee/working groups, will be mapped to CBD stages
The FPA Journey
• CFPC extending CCC into enhanced skills programs
• Small working group created• Creation of Priority Topics
relevant to anesthesia –validated broadly
• Focus on discriminatory acts, or “key features”
Priority Topics
• General Anesthesia• Post-operative care• Teamwork• Equipment • Neuraxial Anesthesia• Airway: complex• OR Emergencies
and complications• Pre-anesthesia
assessment
• Acutely ill or injured• Vascular access• Acute pain
management• Procedural Sedation• Know and apply
limits of capacity• Self directed

Key Features (PT Manage the complex airway)
• Can perform direct laryngosocopy
VS
• Can assess and predict/anticipate the patient with a difficult airway and the stages in which those difficulties may occur.
Or• Perform endotracheal intubation effectively in
elective, urgent and emergent situations that require different approaches
LESSON # 2: YOU DO NOT HAVE TO ASSESS EVERYTHING, JUST THE RIGHT THINGS!
Synergistic messages
• Residents own learning and documentation
• Assess the important things• Subjective and workplace
assessment is going to be vital
Task 2: Defining what is important
• What are the key steps that one must demonstrate to complete the task?
• Keep in mind…• Where do the “incompetents” fall
down.• What is so essential it can’t not be
included
LESSON # 3: FOCUS ON SMALL WINS WHEN IMPLEMENTING CHANGE.

1. Analyze current practices2. Use the big picture to identify
achievable tasks which will move you toward CBD
3. Identify tools & resources required to achieve those tasks
4. Do the work & create the process5. Implement 6. Evaluate & re-evaluate frequently
Look at what you have & what you need
Achievable Tasks
• Give residents real-time feedback on how they are doing in the program
• Set clear expectations for the residents & faculty
• Assess performance in the clinical setting

For the Future
• Mapping to FPA priority topics & Royal College EPAs
• Program syllabus• Online assessment forms rather than
paper• Aggregation software to show overall
resident progress (needs assessment to determine program requirements)
Overview of Lessons Learned
Lesson # 1: Don’t worry about the evolving definitions…They will just tell us!Lesson # 2: You do not have to assess everything, just the right things!Lesson # 3: Focus on Small wins when implementing change.Lesson # 4: Faculty believe in and like competency based assessment…it makes sense!
