In this discussion, Dr. Jerry Rabalais, Dr. Staci Saner, and Dr. Laura Weingartner from the HSC Office of Professional & Educational Development explore the clinician educator milestones—a competency-based framework introduced in 2022 by accrediting bodies like ACGME, AAMC, ACCME, and AACOM for assessing clinician educators. Spanning five levels from novice to expert, these milestones help educators evaluate key skills, knowledge, and behaviors across 20 sub-competencies. Not intended for accreditation (yet), these milestones can aid in self-assessment, peer review, and program development, prompting clinicians to reflect on their teaching abilities and set improvement goals. They discuss how they’ve integrated these milestones to identify gaps in health professions education, develop workshops, and provide targeted feedback. They encourage listeners to assess themselves against a chosen sub-competency and to read the milestone framework’s introductory guidance for a structured self-evaluation, enhancing their self-directed learning and reflective practice as educators.
