Entrustable Professional Activities and Curricular Milestones for Fellowship Training in Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine: Report of a Multisociety Working Group

摘要

The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) are revising the processes by which training programs and trainees are evaluated. The tools for evaluation include reporting milestones, curricular milestones (CMs), and entrustable professional activities (EPAs). The purpose of this article is to describe the CMs and EPAs for fellowship training in pulmonary medicine, critical care medicine, and combined pulmonary and critical care medicine (PCCM) programs. CMs (also termed developmental milestones in the literature) are detailed lists of the specific components of the curriculum of a training program.
