| Popis: | Objectives In medical education and training, increasing numbers of institutions and learners are participating in global health experiences. Within the context of competency-based education and assessment methodologies, a standardized assessment tool may prove valuable to all of the aforementioned stakeholders. Milestones are now used as the standard for trainee assessment in Graduate Medical Education. Thus, the development of a similar, milestone-based tool was undertaken, with learners in Emergency Medicine and global health in mind. Methods The Global Emergency Medicine Think Tank Education Working Group convened at the 2016 Society for Academic Medicine Annual Meeting in New Orleans, Louisiana. Using the Interprofessional Global Health Competencies published by the Consortium of Universities for Global Health's Education Committee as a foundation, the working group developed individual milestones based on the 11 stated domains. An iterative review process was implemented by teams focused on each domain to develop a final product. Results Milestones were developed in each of the 11 domains, with five competency levels for each domain. Specific learning resources were identified for each competency level and assessment methodologies were aligned with the milestones framework. The Global Health Milestones Tool for learners in Emergency Medicine is designed for continuous usage by learners and mentors across a career. Conclusions This Global Health Milestones Tool for learners in Emergency Medicine may prove valuable to numerous stakeholders. Next steps include a formalized pilot program for testing the tool's validity and usability across training programs, as well as an assessment of perceived utility and applicability by collaborating colleagues working in training sites abroad.
