Check out what your peers have to say about the first edition:
'A Practical Guide To Teaching and Assessing the ACGME Core Competencies is a succinct and well-organized publication that addresses each competency in its own chapter, making it easy for us to find specifics when updating our program's assessment tools. Not all groups learn by the same method, and in this book each chapter includes basic definitions, multiple strategies to incorporate the competency into the program's curriculum, and different tools to assess the effectiveness.'
