Description

Health care delivery is changing at an unprecedented pace due to advances in technology, an aging population, the increasing burden of chronic diseases, and health care costs. Medical education, which underwent its last major transformation over a hundred years ago, needs to change so that the next generation of physicians is prepared to care for today's and future patients in a constantly changing environment.

Consortium schools have been developing educational innovations to prepare students for the practice of tomorrow. Speakers will describe changes in health care delivery affecting medical education, discuss innovations in medical education to address those changes, including competency-based evaluation and the student e-portfolio, the master adaptive learner, and academic coaching.
