Three Take Home Points
• Many organizations are moving to a competency-based
education model in place of the historical time-based
model
• Competency-based education hopes to develop a
competent holistic physician and makes sense
• Key to success:
» Stepwise approach
» The proper assessment of learners
» The development of the assessors i.e. the faculty
» Involve the key stakeholders
» You have many of the tools already

Goals:
1. Implement a competency-based curriculum into the
McMaster University, pediatric residency program.
1. Develop a tool, the Mini Milestones Assessment (MiniMAS) to assess intrinsic medical competencies and
progression through milestones using the Dreyfus
Developmental Model.
1. Test the psychometric theories to assess the reliability,
validity, acceptability and feasibility of the Mini-MAS tool.

CBME
• Competency-based education is an approach to preparing
physicians for practice that is fundamentally oriented to
graduate outcome abilities and organized around
competencies derived from an analysis of societal and
patient needs. It deemphasizes time-based training and
promises greater accountability, flexibility, and learner
centeredness (p636)

definition of competency-based education in medicine: A systematic review of published
definitions. Medical Teacher, 32(8), 631-637.

Tea- Steeping model
• The current model of education is a time-based model.
Hodges describes this as the “tea-steeping model”: “we
put the student (tea) in medical school (hot water) for a
fixed period of time and voila! After a historically
determined interval of time, we assume a competent
practitioner, like a good cup of tea, will result”

85(9 Suppl), S34-44.

Student Progression and Assessment
• Student progression was based on a comprehensive
assessment program.
• The PGY 1 resident had to meet the milestones and
objectives successfully.
• The competency-based medical education (CBME)
curriculum was considered a comprehensive block of 22
weeks and thus they had the full time period to achieve
the stated objectives.

Student Progression and Assessment
• Assessments at the end of each rotation block were
formative to allow the resident to reflect on areas of
improvement.
• At the end of their 22 weeks, all assessments were
reviewed to see if the learner had met their objectives and
reached the appropriate milestones.
