Competency-based medical education (CBME) is gaining momentum across the globe. The Medical Council of India has described the basic competencies required of an Indian Medical Graduate and designed a competency-based module on attitudes and communication. Widespread adoption of a competency-based approach would mean a paradigm shift in the current approach to medical education. CBME, hence, needs to be reviewed for its usefulness and limitations in the Indian context. This article describes the rationale of CBME and provides an overview of its components, i.e., competency, entrustable professional activity, and milestones. It elaborates how CBME could be implemented in an institute, in the context of basic sciences in general and pharmacology in particular. The promises and perils of CBME that need to be kept in mind to maximize its gains are described.
基于能力的医学教育(CBME)在全球范围内正蓬勃发展。印度医学委员会已经描述了印度医学毕业生所需具备的基本能力,并设计了一个关于态度和沟通的基于能力的模块。广泛采用基于能力的方法将意味着当前医学教育方法的范式转变。因此,需要审视CBME在印度背景下的实用性和局限性。本文阐述了CBME的基本原理,并概述了其组成部分,即能力、可托付的专业活动和里程碑。文章详细说明了在一所机构中,特别是在基础科学尤其是药理学的背景下,如何实施CBME。文中还描述了为实现CBME的最大效益而需要牢记的其前景与风险。
