Methods: A survey was distributed to clinical teachers and trainees in Taiwan’s OT PGY training programs from 2017 to 2018. The survey included sociodemographic information of the participants (12 items), use of competency assessment (24 items), time of using competency assessment (12 items), and satisfaction with the assessment tools (8 items). Use and timing of competency assessment were rated with yes or no, and satisfaction with the assessment tools was rated with a 5-point Likert scale. Results: A total of 85 clinical teachers and 41 trainees participated the survey. The most frequently used competency assessment tools were portfolio, written examination, and the Mini-CEX. The most frequently used competency assessment tools before the PGY training were written examination, oral test, and portfolio. The most frequently used competency tools during the training stages were portfolio, Mini-CEX, and chart review. The most frequently used competency assessment tools at the completion stage were written examination, portfolio, and Mini-CEX. Teachers and trainees were highly satisfied with the assessment tools. Rates of dissatisfaction and extreme dissatisfaction were below 5% for both the teachers and trainees. The level of satisfaction with the assessment tools was significantly higher in the trainees than in the teachers. Conclusion: Multiple assessment tools have been included in the OT PGY training in Taiwan. Both teachers and trainees report high satisfaction with the competency assessment tools.zhoccupational therapy, allied health education, teaching evaluation, postgraduate year training program.journal article10.6534/jtotrp.202206_18(1).0003
