A groundbreaking guide to ensuring quality assurance in the movement toward competency-based medical education Understanding Assessment in Medical Education through Quality Assurance compiles and shares best practices from leading programs from around the globe. Authoritative approaches and processes that have been tested and refined show how to implement quality assurance of written and performance-based assessments in medical education while maintaining regulatory standards. Leading figures in the medical world on this issue, the authors provide specific suggestions and showcase how their methods can be implemented with representative case studies. Medical educators and their students will benefit from this suite of evidence-based QA processes that they can immediately put into action for monitoring and ensuring continuous quality improvement. Understanding Assessment in Medical Education through Quality Assurance: * Addresses a key gap in the literature by offering an international confluence of best practices in relation to quality assurance of assessment, both within academic institutions and at national and international accreditation levels * Provides insight into international best practice through illuminating case studies * Addresses performance-based, workplace-based, and programmatic assessment * Outlines the role of technology in the quality assurance of assessment processes * Explores ethical considerations and health and safety issues that impact standardization of QA processes
