Sammanfattning
Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) define observable key tasks that a doctor should be able to do independently after having completed a certain level of education. Progression is facilitated by frequent assessments of the defined activities, with increased degree of independence. The observations should be supported by constructive feed-forward. EPA is currently used in several countries both in undergraduate and post graduate education. In the context of pending changes in Swedish legislation regarding undergraduate education qualifications ordinance and medical licensing, a Swedish national work group has begun to define Swedish EPA for the future undergraduate education.
