Abstract

Competency-based education has been widely adopted as a training framework for different health professions throughout the world. It is increasingly recognized that optimal student assessment in competency-based education necessitates multiple perspectives through repeated observations over time. In the workplace-based curriculum, the assessor pool may be expanded to include insights from the mixed-discipline practitioners with whom trainees interact when engaged in patient care. In this talk, I will review our current understanding of how both trainees and clinicians alike view such feedback and associated processes and explore the future of multisource feedback in health professional education.
