Assessment is essential to all levels of education, and UME and GME are no exception. With the introduction of competency and outcome-based education, and with the ACGME’s current accreditation model that includes the Milestones, the urgency for high-quality Medical Education programs to meet the needs of learners and the public has grown substantially.

The program goal for C.O.M.P.A.S.S. is to enhance the assessment competencies of undergraduate and graduate medical education faculty by providing a comprehensive, experiential learning experience that equips participants with advanced skills in competency-based medical education, assessment methodology, and learner evaluation strategies.
