Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: ABSTRACT Competency-based medical education aims to produce competent medical graduates who are well-equipped to deal with the challenges of the health-care delivery system. In the field of medical education, milestones act as a marker to provide insights to both students and teachers regarding the progress of students regarding the attainment of the learning competencies. Milestones-based assessment tends to make the assessment process structured and holistic by giving a clear roadmap for medical students and helping them understand the significance and the expected progression across the different stages of training. In conclusion, milestone-based assessments in medical education possess immense potential in assessing and guiding learning progression among medical students. The need of the hour is to do capacity-building activities and adopt a comprehensive approach to streamline the process of development and implementation of milestones in the delivery of competency-based medical education.
