Learners who are under-represented in medicine (UIM) face bias in assessment that over time may negatively impact their career trajectories. This workshop reviews strategies described in non-medical education settings that can moderate the effects of bias on student assessment. Participants will consider how to apply these strategies in medical education to advance the goals of diversity, equity and inclusion.

During this workshop, participants will participate in small and large group work to:

Share challenges faced in assessment related to equity
Discuss barriers and opportunities to applying these strategies
Reflect on personal assessment decisions and challenges

At the end of the workshop, participants will be able to:

Describe the historical context and ongoing potential for bias in learner assessment

Examine current learner assessment systems and practices for bias

Recommend changes to assessment systems and practices that will provide all learners greater opportunity to demonstrate their learning and be successful

Reflect on personal assessment decisions about individual learners to mitigate the potential for bias
