In 2019, a formal review and update of the current training program for medical physics residents/registrars in Australasia was conducted. The purpose of this was to ensure the program met current local clinical and technological requirements, to improve standardization of training across Australia and New Zealand and generate a dynamic curriculum and programmatic assessment model.
A four-phase project was initiated, including a consultant desktop review of the current program and stakeholder consultation. Overarching program outcomes on which to base the training model were developed, with content experts used to update the scientific content. Finally, assessment specialists reviewed a range of assessment models to determine appropriate assessment methods for each learning outcome, creating a model of programmatic assessment.
The first phase identified a need for increased standardized assessment incorporating programmatic assessment. Seven clear program outcome statements were generated and used to guide and underpin the new curriculum framework. The curriculum was expanded from the previous version to include emerging technologies, while removing previous duplication. Finally, a range of proposed assessments for learning outcomes in the curriculum were generated into the programmatic assessment model. These new assessment methods were structured to incorporate rubric scoring to provide meaningful feedback.
An updated training program for Radiation Oncology Medial Physics registrars/residents was released in Australasia. Scientific content from a previous program was used as a foundation and revised for currency with the ability to accommodate a dynamic curriculum model. A programmatic model of assessment was created after comprehensive review and consultation. This new model of assessment provides more structured, ongoing assessment throughout the training period. It contains allowances for local bespoke assessment, and guidance for supervisors by the provision of marking templates and rubrics.
2019 年，对澳大拉西亚目前的医学物理住院医师/研究员培训计划进行了正式审查和更新。这样做的目的是确保该计划符合当前当地的临床和技术要求，提高澳大利亚和新西兰培训的标准化，并生成动态课程和计划评估模型。
启动了一个四阶段的项目，包括对当前计划的顾问桌面审查和利益相关者协商。制定了涵盖培训模型的总体计划成果，内容专家用于更新科学内容。最后，评估专家审查了一系列评估模型，以确定每种学习成果的适当评估方法，创建一个计划评估模型。
第一阶段确定需要增加包含计划评估的标准化评估。生成了七个明确的计划成果陈述，并用于指导和支持新课程框架。课程从以前的版本扩展到包括新兴技术，同时删除了以前的重复内容。最后，为课程中的学习成果生成了一系列建议的评估，纳入了计划评估模型。这些新的评估方法被构建为纳入等级评分，以提供有意义的反馈。
在澳大拉西亚发布了更新的放射肿瘤医学物理住院医师/研究员培训计划。以前计划的科学内容被用作基础，并进行了修订以适应课程的动态模型。经过全面审查和协商，创建了计划评估模型。这种新的评估模式提供了更具结构性、贯穿整个培训期的持续评估。它允许进行本地定制评估，并通过提供评分模板和等级评分来为主管提供指导。
