    Area of Science:

    • Health Professions Education
    • Educational Assessment

    Background:

    • Competency-based education (CBE) systems rely on criterion-referenced evaluations.
    • Traditional grading often uses norm-referenced approaches, comparing students to each other.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • Describe general concepts of competency-based education and evaluation.
    • Outline implementation methods at the Medical College of Georgia's Physical Therapy Department.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized criterion-referenced evaluation instruments.
    • Focused on assessing student achievement against pre-defined external criteria.
    • Employed diverse assessment tools to gauge competency.

    Main Results:

    • Student performance was evaluated objectively against established benchmarks.

  • The system ensured that students met entry-level practice requirements.
  • Individual student progress was the focus, not comparative ranking.

    • Conclusions:

    • Criterion-referenced evaluations are integral to competency-based education.
    • This approach effectively measures student achievement against external standards.
    • The methodology ensures graduates meet essential practice competencies.
