This is an important and exciting time for the Internal Medicine training program. The Internal Medicine CBD roll-out starts August 1st, with the piloting of the first Entrustable Professional Activity (EPA): History, Physical and Documentation for the PGY-1s in “Transition to Discipline” (TTD). (The TTD is the first four blocks of the PGY-1 year).
What you need to know:
1.) If you will be supervising a PGY-1 in Block 2 (August 1-28), you should have received information from your division’s colleague who is the local site coordinator for your rotation. Please contact them or me if you haven’t.
2.) How to access the tool: You should have received two emails from PGME/Medsquares in order to complete registration:
Set up your password (your username is your UTorID, which they provide in the email, along with a temporary password) on https://medsquares.com/
ii. Then access the tools at https://cbme.usquaresoft.com/ If you didn’t get the emails, or if you are having any difficulties, please contact cbme.pgme@utoronto.ca
IF YOU HAVEN'T REGISTERED: you can still evaluate a resident, if they log onto the system and put your name as “Other assessor”
3.) This is a pilot, so we want feedback from you as to how it goes.
