Identifying emergency medicine program directors’ expectations of competence upon entry into residency: Bridging the distance from the <scp>Association of American Medical Colleges Core Entrustable Professional Activities</scp>

PDs agree with the generalist focus of the AAMC Core EPAs and feel strongly that specialty training should be left to residency programs. They also have mechanisms in place to verify entrustment within their local context. Transparency in assessment and summative entrustment processes in UME may unify expectations. Finally, the granularity of OPAs may aid in a post-Match handover to further operationalize the EPAs and optimize the UME-to-GME transition.
