Popis: Professionalism is a competency that can be shaped and developed over time; therefore, assessing behavior and growth across the educational continuum is essential. At Tulane, we are piloting a system that tracks patterns of behavior across all courses and years. This approach allows for longitudinal assessment of student performance and helps identify those who need additional support to meet expected competencies. Moreover, maintaining a professionalism theme throughout the curriculum raises awareness of our commitment to a culture of professionalism and assures that our graduating students embody the standards and ethics essential to the practice of medicine.
