Development of entrustable professional activities for dental educators: a modified Delphi study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

There is a growing need for Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) specifically tailored to health professions educators including dental educators, whose responsibilities extend well beyond clinical expertise. Despite the breadth and complexity of these responsibilities, the current literature lacks EPA frameworks that are explicitly designed to reflect the unique and multifaceted scope of practice of dental educators.

Objective

The objective of this Modified Delphi study was to develop a validated and consensus-based set of EPAs for dental educators.

Methods

A three-stage consensus-building approach was employed in this study: (1) identification of existing EPAs in the literature through a systematic scoping review; (2) two rounds of a Modified Delphi
