Yale is collaborating with ACGME to co-sponsor a regional faculty development course for academic faculty. This five consecutive half-day course is a condensed version of the popular week-long ACGME course concentrated on assessment skills. This highly interactive course will cover learner assessment skills (such as direct observation and feedback) as well as tools and strategies to help programs best meet their programmatic requirements (clinical competency committee input, multisource evaluations). The target audience includes program directors, associate program directors, fellowship directors, chairs, heads of clinical competency committees, and other core faculty with major responsibility for the assessment of residents and fellows.

Target Audience
Faculty involved in education of health care professional trainees.

Highlights of this highly experiential, hands-on course will include:

• Goals and principles of CBME (from milestones to EPAs)
• Practical application of multiple assessment methods and tools
• How to creative effective assessment systems
• Providing effective Feedback
• Direct Observation: Feedback on your Feedback!
• Self–regulated learning- what is its role in resident and student education?
• Clinical Competency Committee Management

(Detailed agenda and course materials will be available prior to conference)

1. Apply key principles of outcomes-based education in graduate medical education training programs
2. Optimize the use of developmental assessment based on goals and principles of Competency-Based Medical Education (CBME)
3. Describe and apply key issues in rater cognition and their implications for effective assessment
4. Build an effective assessment program by choosing and applying appropriate assessment tools
5. Incorporate principles of self-directed learning into individual learning plans
6. Recognize potential for bias in assessment and strategies to mitigate.
