Implementing competency-based medical education in post-graduate ophthalmology training: Understanding key concepts and methodologies and overcoming challenges

Abstract: The National Medical Council (NMC) has mandated that all post-graduate training shall be competency-based, following the principles of Competency. Based Medical Education (CBME). This aims to serve the dual purpose of standardizing ophthalmology post-graduate training and to overcome the shortcomings of the traditional curriculum by employing innovative and interactive teaching–learning and assessment techniques to produce competent ophthalmologists well equipped with clinical, surgical, and professional skill… Show more

“…Although simulations are invaluable for developing technical skills, they cannot replicate the pressures and unpredictabilities of actual surgical environments. Therefore, an integrated approach that combines the real-life experiences of the Halstedian model with the controlled, repetitive practice opportunities provided by modern simulations may offer the most effective training paradigm, ensuring that surgical residents are thoroughly prepared for a wide range of clinical situations [14], [15], [16]. The introduction of surgical simulators in all fields of surgical education has demonstrated an increased operative performance when measured by Global Rating Scale (GRS) scores, and led to significant reductions in operative time [17].…”

“…In India, Postgraduate medical education programs have embraced a competency-based curriculum that outlines required skills, with competency-based assessments involving active self-assessment, peer assessment, and feedback processes, aligning with defined competencies and enabling learners to showcase their skills in real clinical contexts. 13,14 Postgraduate students can benefit from mentorship and coaching, where experienced faculty or clinicians can guide and support their learning journey. 15 Mentors or coaches can provide feedback, career guidance, and support for professional development.…”

“…Despite tremendous advancement in the field of medical sciences in India as well as well-defined guidelines of National Medical Council (NMC) for competency-based postgraduate training program for MS in ophthalmology, there is a vast diversity prevailing in the curriculum, exposure, duration, as well as training module of training of residents in cataract surgery. [ 2 ] Other developing countries are not an exception to this trend. Over and above, the backlog of cataract patients in these countries is much higher than in developed countries.…”
