Title
Static in the line or a full disconnect? Exploring resident perceptions and interpretations of initial competency based medical education (CBME) implementation compared to the core components of CBME
Length of Presentation
Background/Purpose
CBD is a hybrid competency-based model that focuses on residents' abilities in relation to the competencies needed for success in practice. This model is based on five components: framework of competencies, sequenced progression, tailored experiences, competency-focused instruction, and programmatic assessment. There has been limited exploration of residents' experiences of implementation of CBD thus far. We explored residents' mental models in relation to the core components and their general experiences to identify if CBD implementation in the first 8 disciplines is occurring as it was conceptualized.
Methods
A descriptive qualitative design was used to explore and better understand the resident experiences. All residents who had exposure to CBD implementation were invited to participate. We conducted face-to-face or telephone semi-structured interviews. Interviews were digitally recorded and transcribed verbatim. Thematic analysis was used to create data-driven codes and identify themes and subthemes. We used an iterative consensus-building process to reach saturation. Research Ethics Board approval was obtained.
Results
A total of 20/50 (40%) residents representing 6 different disciplines from the 1st(n=4) and 2nd(n=16) cohorts of CBD implementation were interviewed. Five main themes emerged: i) value of feedback; ii) strategies for successful Entrustable Professional Activity(EPA) completion; iii) challenges encountered in CBD; iv) general perceptions regarding CBD; and v) recommendations to improve on existing challenges.
Conclusion
Exploring residents' mental models of CBD core components and understanding their experiences on the implementation will help identify/disseminate successes, challenges, and future directions from the residents' perspective to assist programs at different stages of CBD implementation.
