This article describes the adaptations made by residency programs in addressing the challenges of assessment in competency-based medical education (CBME), based on the analysis of an early adopter's experience in Canada. Through a standardized Rapid Evaluation and interviews and focus groups, the study identified three themes related to the burden of assessment in CBME and proposed adaptations to address these challenges.
Residents and faculty have described a burden of assessment related to the implementation of competency-based medical education (CBME), which may undermine its benefits. Although this concerning signal has been identified, little has been done to identify adaptations to address this problem. Grounded in an analysis of an early Canadian pan-institutional CBME adopter's experience, this article describes postgraduate programs' adaptations related to the challenges of assessment in CBME. From June 2019-September 2022, 8 residency programs underwent a standardized Rapid Evaluation guided by the Core Components Framework (CCF). Sixty interviews and 18 focus groups were held with invested partners. Transcripts were analyzed abductively using CCF, and ideal implementation was compared with enacted implementation. These findings were then shared back with program leaders, adaptations were subsequently developed, and technical reports were generated for each program. Researchers reviewed the technical reports to identify themes related to the burden of assessment with a subsequent focus on identifying adaptations across programs. Three themes were identified: (1) disparate mental models of assessment processes in CBME, (2) challenges in workplace-based assessment processes, and (3) challenges in performance review and decision making. Theme 1 included entrustment interpretation and lack of shared mindset for performance standards. Adaptations included revising entrustment scales, faculty development, and formalizing resident membership. Theme 2 involved direct observation, timeliness of assessment completion, and feedback quality. Adaptations included alternative assessment strategies beyond entrustable professional activity forms and proactive assessment planning. Theme 3 related to resident data monitoring and competence committee decision making. Adaptations included adding resident representatives to the competence committee and assessment platform enhancements. These adaptations represent responses to the concerning signal of significant burden of assessment within CBME being experienced broadly. The authors hope other programs may learn from their institution's experience and navigate the CBME-related assessment burden their invested partners may be facing.
