Competencies and Evaluation

Throughout the year, fellows are evaluated by supervising faculty. Competency based assessment tools include simulated chart reviews, conference presentation/teaching evaluations, procedural skills evaluation, in-training examinations, patient surveys, and 360° Evaluations. Fellows are required to evaluate the faculty and the training program on a semi-annual basis. Fellows are required to maintain an accurate and up-to-date ACGME on-line case and procedure log. Fellows are required to maintain an accurate and up-to-date learning portfolio documenting accomplishments towards achieving competency in the areas of patient care, medical knowledge, practice-based learning and improvement, interpersonal and communication skills, professionalism and system-based practice.

Fellows meet with the Program Director on a semi-annual basis to review progress and receive feedback. The Clinical Competency Committee assists with completion of the ACGME Allergy/Immunology Milestone assessments.
