Abstract

Competency-based education (CBE) has started to change the medical education process from a time-based, teacher-focused approach to an outcomes-based, learner-centered, and population-sensitive philosophy. The International Competency-Based Medical Education Collaborators (ICBME) first convened in 2009 and released a series of scholarly papers that laid the conceptual foundation for CBE in medical education. CBE is intended to address many of the shortcomings in our current medical education system. Prominent among such concerns is the disconnect between topics emphasized in the education process, and the health needs of the populations that learners intend to serve.
