Introduction
Also known as in-training evaluation review (ITER), or in-training assessment review (ITAR).
Need to convince learners and preceptors that 3s are ok.
In-training evaluation
Need to sample the essential skills for the practice of the speciality.
Evaluation objectives are a subset and interpretation of the CanMeds roles. These need to be be functional. Language is criticially important to gain buy-in.
There needs to be regular evaluation with documentation. If this happens regularly, the evaluation descriptors come through.
- Tasks and roles are best centred in family practice
- provide a comprehensive view
Case discussions of regular clinical care suffices normally, though direct observation is also helpful.
Limitations to ITARs:
Recall bias, halo effect, central tendency
