In the past decade, medical educators internationally have endorsed entrustable professional activities (EPAs) as an important framework to advance competency-based education. EPAs focus assessment on a learners’ performance of the essential work activities in a specialty. They are assessed by determining how much supervision is needed and how much independence learners have earned to perform these activities. In this workshop we will describe the relationship between competency-based education and EPAs, explain trust prospective decision-making, describe the components of an EPA, and recognize opportunities and challenges in implementing EPAs in a variety of contexts.

This workshop is in person only.
