As promised announcing the Competence Committee (CC) members in this post!
All programs across Canada are required to set up a CC as they transition to CBD. The Competence Committee (CC) responsibilities are to make promotion recommendations based on a framework of entrustable professional activities (i.e. EPAs…What are EPAs??) and other traditional assessment modalities, to determine resident competence along its continuum. It uses a developmental model to guide the resident’s learning by identifying areas that may benefit from more focus. Most importantly it uses the “wisdom of many” by engaging insights and perspectives from a diverse group of faculty. The CC reports to the PD and EMRTC.
I am excited to announce the CC members in alphabetical order:
Dr. Emily Austin (SMH)
Dr. Dennis Cho (UHN)
Dr. Tim Dalseg (UHN)
Dr. Martin Horak (SMH)
Dr. Dominick Shelton (SHSC)
Dr. Aikta Verma – Chair
Dr. Nazanin Meshkat – PD
The CC will start onboarding in April in time for our July 2018 implementation. Both CBD and non-CBD resident files will be reviewed by the CC on a monthly basis starting in July 2018. The PD and program coordinator will remain the point of contact for all resident-related questions/updates/concerns/compliments.
