OVERVIEW AND BENEFITS

Competency-based medical education (CBME) is an outcomes-based approach to medical education. One emerging approach to CBME uses entrustable professional activities (EPAs) — discrete tasks or responsibilities — that learners are entrusted to perform once they have attained sufficient specific competence. In 2014, the AAMC published a list of 13 EPAs for entering residency (Core EPAs) that a resident could be expected to perform with indirect supervision on the first day of residency; these 13 EPAs could potentially constitute a discrete subset of all requirements for advancement from undergraduate medical education (UME) to graduate medical education. Shortly thereafter, the AAMC convened a 10-school pilot project to explore the feasibility of implementing the Core EPAs in UME. That seven-year pilot ended in June 2021. 

This report provides an overview of the activities of the 10-school pilot over that seven-year period and summarizes its programmatic outcomes. For the medical education community at large, the experiences and outcomes of the pilot can inform work ahead in creating a more seamless continuum of medical education, easing the transition to residency, and assuring the readiness of all medical school graduates for the responsibilities they will assume on day one of residency.
