On-Demand Webinar: Competency-Based Medical Education – The Path Forward

September 4, 2026

Preparing for Independent Practice Requires More Than Tracking Hours

Competency-Based Medical Education (CBME) centers on whether medical learners have achieved competence rather than how many required rotations, exams, procedure counts, or training hours they've completed. Join our webinar, led by Dr. John Patrick T. Co, Chief Education and Research Officer at ACGME and Associate Professor of Pediatrics at Harvard Medical School, to learn how clinical judgment and safe practice are more meaningful than tracking hours.

As part of the 2026 MedHub Virtual Education Summit, Dr. Co explains how effective CBME relies on high-value assessments. Self-reflection can also help trainees actively participate in their own learning.

  • Learn how lessons from COVID-19 reinforced CBME principles.
  • Understand the innovative "Promotion in Place" pilot at Mass General Brigham.
  • Discover how assessment systems can signal when a trainee is prepared for independent practice.
