Commentary on competency-based medical education and scholarship: creating an active academic culture during residency

摘要

Successful organizations strive to understand and harness institutional culture in the pursuit of their mandates [1, 2]. In this issue, Bourgeois and colleagues observe that it is a time of great transformation in the field of medicine [3]. These authors suggest that the curricular changes required by nascent competency-based medical education (CBME) frameworks [4?6] create an opportunity to facilitate the development of an organizational culture of academic scholarship in postgraduate medical training programmes [3].
