Not wanted on the voyage: highlighting intrinsic CanMEDS gaps in Competence by Design curricula

Abstract

Deliberate planning in curriculum development affords the early identification of gaps. These gaps can inform current assessment practice and future curricular development by providing direction for innovation. If we are to ensure that any new curricula meaningfully address all CanMEDS roles, we need to think carefully about how to best teach and assess underrepresented competencies.
