Abstract
Integration of core competencies into professional tasks in clinical practice is the core concept of entrustable professional activities (EPAs). The progression of competencies can be examined using entrustability scales, which are also applied as a reference for clinical supervision and authorization. Through EPAs, core competencies are effectively integrated into clinical care and applied in workplace teaching. To implement competency-based medical education (CBME) in Taiwan for medical radiation technologists, we established the EPAs of the three departments of radiation technology by adopting solid consensus methods. The results revealed that our methods effectively improved the overall understanding of the concept of EPAs and profession-specific core competencies (p＜0.001). In addition, the effective consensus methods (4.87 and 4.82 points) improved the applicability of EPAs in clinical teaching (4.88 points) and professional identification in medical radiation technology (4.87 points). In the next step, nationwide teaching hospitals will be invited to implement CBME. Extensive practical experience and feedback will be collected to tailor the program according to local needs.
