Medical education which is competency-based is the current trend. I request medical teachers to share their experiences.
Traditional medical education (before book learning and academization) was based on seeing patients first, after a short preliminary preparation phase in anatomy, physiology, pathology and methodology. Bringing back this mental competency into medicalization requires the general and basic medical professional, who afterwards may embark on much higher studies and research, but starts with a patient-oriented clinical 'apprenticeship'. Another point is the neglect of medical diagnostics in curricula, which most physicians learn-by-doing, after graduation. This skill should factually be-come a methodical core competency, before any graduation.
Absolutely agree that competency-based is the current and future goal in medical esucation
The only way you asure competency training is by an efficient way of evaluating the competencies established. And that is not an easy task.
