The next steps will be the formation of Working Groups to focus on the top initiatives and establish objectives and outcomes, measures of progress, timelines, champions and stakeholders, and needed resources. Many of the other initiatives will be addressed by the leadership and members of the Residency Program Training Committee with continued involvement and input from all our housestaff.
The BCRP is in the process of implementing these strategic initiatives through two important efforts, the Competencies Initiative, and the BCRP Curricular Review. The Competencies Initiative, led by James Moses, will enhance competency-based training and evaluation throughout the BCRP so that the goals of each training experience are more competency-based and the assessment tools are more specific, direct, and formative. These new evaluation methodologies include direct observations, audits of written communication, multi-source feedback, critique of educational sessions, simulated training sessions and involvement in quality improvement projects.
The BCRP Curricular Review focuses on the missions of the Primary Care and Categorical tracks, an examination of the Core Conferences and the Core Rotations, and an in-depth examination of the Continuity Clinic and the possibility of developing Longitudinal Subspecialty Experiences within that clinic.
