Graduate Medical Education Outcomes and Metrics: A Workshop

Completed

A workshop focused on the discussion about measureable outcomes of GME, possible metrics for these outcomes, and mechanisms for collecting, analyzing, and reporting this data.

Description

An ad hoc planning committee will plan a series of 2 public dissemination workshops to discuss potential ways to address the current lack of established GME outcome measures, which was identified as a primary concern in the consensus report. The workshop will feature invited presentations and panel discussion on topics that may include:

  • meaningful and measurable outcomes of GME

  • possible metrics that could be used to track these outcomes

  • GME data sources and current access requirements

  • possible mechanisms for collecting, collating, analyzing and reporting this data (appropriately protecting confidentiality)

  • the resources and agreements that would be necessary for a national database

The planning group will develop the agenda for the workshop sessions, select and invite speakers and discussants, and moderate the discussions. A preceedings of the presentations and discussions at the workshop will be prepared by a designated rapporteur in accordance with institutional guidelines.
