The Royal College Competence by Design curriculum in obstetrics and gynaecology will launch in 2019, and it will depend heavily on multiple tools for accurate resident assessment. Several Canadian obstetrics and gynaecology residency programs use rotation-specific examinations at the end of various rotations for formative feedback. The obstetrics and gynaecology residency program at the University of Toronto adopted end-of-rotation examinations (EOREs) in 2014. We conducted a national survey to assess the current use of EOREs across Canada and to examine the attitudes and beliefs of residents and program directors regarding their use. We discuss faculty and resident experiences with EOREs and their perceptions of them. We also consider the role and benefit of these examinations in the context of the educational literature, and how they may integrate with future competency-based medical education frameworks.
皇家妇产科学院的“设计能力”妇产科课程将于2019年推出，该课程将严重依赖多种工具来准确评估住院医师。加拿大的几个妇产科住院医师培训项目在不同轮转结束时使用特定轮转考试来提供形成性反馈。多伦多大学的妇产科住院医师培训项目于2014年采用了轮转结束考试（EOREs）。我们进行了一项全国性调查，以评估加拿大各地EOREs的当前使用情况，并调查住院医师和项目主任对其使用的态度和看法。我们讨论了教员和住院医师使用EOREs的经验以及他们对这些考试的看法。我们还在教育文献的背景下考虑了这些考试的作用和益处，以及它们如何与未来基于能力的医学教育框架相结合。
