Dynamic CBE

What are we doing for CBE?

Our dynamic framework builder allows programs to explicitly define relationships within their curricula, enabling a robust set of educational tools. Whether employing one of many models of CBE or mapping national standards to specific course learning outcomes, Elentra’s ability to support complex data architectures facilitates the dynamic generation of specific assessment tools, customizable dashboards, relationship mapping, and meaningful reporting mechanisms.

The framework builder expands on our comprehensive CBME module, which allows medical programs to upload EPA and milestone frameworks, generating workplace-based assessment tools in real-time when a resident or faculty member triggers an assessment in the clinical environment.

The team at Elentra has played a pivotal role in the success of the Queen’s CBME project in Postgraduate Medical Education and helping launch all 29 specialty programs into CBME curriculums. Their commitment to building a true end-user design model that meets everyone’s needs (trainees, University, Royal College of Physicians & Surgeons of Canada) has been impressive since we started collaborating together in 2015.

I look forward to our ongoing collaboration and continuous optimization of the design features for this incredible platform. I encourage all medical education leaders to try a demo and speak with the Elentra team leaders to see what IT solutions are possible at their institution.

Stage Progress

Overall resident progress in EPA achievement is functionally displayed on the Resident Dashboard grouped by Stages of Development along the Development Continuum.

Assessment Trend Charts

Residents, their Academic Advisors, and Program Directors can examine performance patterns across multiple assessments completed for a single EPA with our Assessment Trend Charts. They can also drill down into the charts, pull up and review specific assessment forms that have contributed to the displayed trend.

Detailed Filters

Our CBE assessment system also has extensive search capabilities through a detailed filter feature. This functionality allows Residents, their Academic Advisors, and Program Directors to query performance information by, for instance, CanMEDs Roles, diagnoses, case complexity, clinical setting, and numerous additional contextual variables.

Comprehensive Dashboards

Adopting a user-centred approach, we’ve created dashboards to facilitate the display and interpretation of assessment data for residents, their academic advisors, program directors and administrators, and competence committee members.
