90-minute workshop about strategies to improve the frequency and quality of direct observation of learners and to provide an overview of the ACGME's online faculty development toolkit, Improving Assessment Using Direct Observation. The free ACGME toolkit offers faculty development curricula that can be adapted to local needs and provides individual faculty members with techniques to become better educators.
What You Need to Know About ACGME and ABFM Expectations for a Shift to Competency-Based Medical Education
Recorded December 8, 2023 / Presenters: KrisEmily McCrory, MD, MS, Med Ed, FAAFP, and Warren Newton, MD, MPH, President/CEO ABFM
While competency based medical education models have been around for more than half a century, many family medicine educators are not familiar with the tenets of this model. The ACGME has been increasing the emphasis on competency outcomes since the implementation of the Milestone project just over a decade ago. Additionally, the ABFM has instituted fifteen Core Outcomes to complement the Milestones and for which Family Medicine residency programs will be responsible for ensuring their graduating residents can be entrusted to perform as independent family physicians. The Core Competencies, Milestones, and Core Outcomes provide a framework to anchor Family Medicine residency education but do not provide specific tools for implementation.
The purpose of this webinar, which is intended to be the first of several in a series, will be to introduce the basic tenets of CBME and describe how the Core Competencies, Milestones, and Core Outcomes fit in a CBME model. We will briefly explore some of the biggest challenges to implementing CBME and identify resources for successful implementation. Finally, we will review the charge from the ABFM with regards to Core Outcomes for board eligibility.
Upon completion of this session, participants should be able to:
- Identify five tenets at the heart of CBME in family medicine education.
- Compare and contrast three differences in traditional GME education models and CBME models.
- Describe the ABFM timeline for attestation of Core Outcomes over the next three years.

Reflections, Goals, & Objectives - Oh My! Best Practice for Creating Individualized Learning Plans
Recorded January 10, 2024 / Presenters: R. Aaron Lambert, MD, FAAFP, and Pamela Ann MacMillan with support from Priyanka Tulshian, MD, MPH
Historically, most programs implemented individual learning plans (ILPs) for residents needing remediation. With the ACGME requirements and ABFM expectations for competency-based medical education (CBME), there is a shift from limited learning plans for underperforming residents to more comprehensive plans for all residents – both to mitigate the stigma of having an ILP and to recognize that progression of learning is unique to each individual learner. While the former remediation plans were driven by faculty, ILPs are ultimately meant to be resident driven. This presentation will help participants understand the components of an ILP, how they differ from remediation plans, and pearls for getting started with their own residents.
This webinar is the second in a series of CBME focused webinars hosted by STFM and the AFMRD and is a follow up to the webinar, What You Need to Know About ACGME and ABFM Expectations for a Shift to Competency-Based Medical Education.
Upon completion of this session, participants should be able to:
- List components of personal/individual learning plans.
- Describe the difference between remediation plans and personal/individual learning plans.
- List three pearls to developing personal/individual learning plans.

Let's Talk About Entrustment
Recorded February 14, 2024 / Presenters: KrisEmily McCrory, MD, MS, Med Ed, FAAFP, and Lauren Anderson, PhD
An important component of Core Outcomes is the process of attesting to them. Entrustment has been invoked several times but may be unfamiliar to many faculty. Webinar will introduce the concept of entrustment as relates to CBME. Describe how it has been used with Entrustable Professional Activities and now evolved to be used with Core Outcomes. Will review Entrustability Scales and how they have been used successfully in GME by surgery and how they can be adapted to the broader scope of Family Medicine with concrete examples of their use in Family Medicine. Finally, we will review the similarities and differences between a Five-level Entrustability Scale and the Five Milestone Levels to reinforce how these scales complement but do not replace each other.
Upon completion of this session, participants should be able to:
- define entrustment as it relates to CBME
- describe the different levels of a 5-level entrustability scale

Assessment Tools for CBME and the Core Outcomes
Recorded April 10, 2024 / Presenters: Olivia Rae Wright, MD, and Velyn Wu, MD,
Competency Based Medical Education (CBME) emphasizes frequent, low-stakes assessments incorporating direct observation. This shift in paradigm will require many programs to make adjustments to their assessment process. This webinar will identify several workplace-based assessment tools and strategies for direct observation. We will introduce assessment tools from the STFM CBME Taskforce and discuss a proposed pilot for use of a mobile app. Our focus will be on assessment methods already in use and new ones that can be readily implemented.
Upon completion of this session, participants should be able to:
- Identify at least two assessments tools already in place in their programs that could be used to address the new Core Outcomes

How to have Reflective Feedback Conversations and Develop a Culture of Effective Feedback
Recorded July 10, 2024 / Presenters: Stephenie Matosich, DO, and Stefanie White, MD
Although many faculty have experience in feedback, the shift to CBME necessitates using feedback in more reflective, learner centered ways. With the shift to more frequent formative feedback, faculty need skills both in providing meaningful feedback and helping residents in using that feedback in their individual learning plans. Webinar will focus on the concept of reflective feedback conversations that are learner centered and build trust and respect between learners and teachers. Will identify ways to build a culture of effective feedback by emphasizing two-way feedback channels and how faculty can role model receiving and incorporating feedback. Review ways to incorporate self-reflection and self-assessment based on available data and emphasizing the importance of direct observation as the basis of feedback.
Upon completion of this session, participants should be able to:
- List key aspects of reflective feedback conversations
- Identify how faculty can role-model receiving and incorporating feedback
- Describe how to guide residents in self-reflection and assessment based on evaluation data available to them

Recorded August 14, 2024 / Presenters: Lou Edje, MD, MHPE, FAAFP, and Velyn Wu, MD, MACM, FAAFP, CAQSM
Tenets of the Master Adaptive Learner (MAL) conceptual framework are important for developing skills of lifelong learning, but traditional training and education have not always emphasized a growth mindset and it can be difficult to move into that space. This webinar will identify key characteristics of the MAL and provide concrete examples of how to implement the MAL framework in programs. This webinar will contrast MAL to more traditional models and review evidence for why MAL better aligns with attainment of competency in the Core Outcomes. Upon completion of this session, participants should be able to: - Participants will be able to describe key tenets of the master adaptive learner. - Participants will be able to review current programmatic/curricular components to identify opportunities to incorporate master adaptive learning skills. - Participants will be able to help faculty assess their own readiness to incorporate master adaptive learner conceptual framework/growth mindset in their teaching and curricular development.
