Video Transcription

Video Summary

This video provides an overview of the ACGME self-study process. The objectives include understanding the purpose and timeline of the self-study, reviewing the components and stakeholders involved, and learning how to complete the online self-study form. The self-study is a detailed assessment of a program's strengths, weaknesses, and plans for improvement. The video outlines an 8-step process, starting with assembling a self-study group and discussing program aims. It then covers gathering information on program strengths and areas for improvement, assessing opportunities and threats, obtaining stakeholder input, interpreting data, and writing and submitting the self-study document. The final steps involve reviewing key findings with stakeholders and completing a self-study summary. After the self-study, the program must track data and implement improvements, which will be reviewed during the site visit. ACGME resources on the self-study process are also mentioned.
