About this title

Synopsis

This manual introduces residency program directors to the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). A competency-based OSCE can be a valuable assessment tool to provide educational outcome data that may be used to improve individual resident and overall program performance. This manual will not only describe the components of an OSCE and how it can be used in residency training programs, but will provide all the necessary information to immediately use the OSCE described in this manual to evaluate residents. This manual provides the basic knowledge of how to effectively run an OSCE. The station scenarios and evaluation forms will also provide a framework to assist program directors in creating additional scenarios to fit their specific programs. This manual was made possible through the ideas and collaboration of multiple specialty physician educators and contributing authors.
