Abstract
Trials and Tribulations in Implementation of the Emergency Medicine Milestones from the Frontlines.
Highlights
As part of medical education’s shift toward competencybased education (CBE), the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) announced the Milestones Project in 2008 to create an outcomes-based model of competency development
As part of the Accreditation System (NAS) implemented by the ACGME in July 2013, each Milestone subcompetency has to be reported for every resident at six-month intervals by individual residency clinical competency committees (CCC).[1]
Some have suggested the linking of Entrustable Professional Activities (EPA), defined as “units of physician practice in which the goal is unsupervised competent practice by a trainee” with emergency medicine (EM) Milestones.[7]
