About this book
Competencies in Sleep Medicine provides the knowledge and curriculum needed for a Sleep Medicine Training Program. The approach is consistent with the goals of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), which asks programs to develop specific and targeted approaches to each program that covers the material presented in the Training Program.
Authored by leaders in the field, each chapter focuses on an area of knowledge and skills in sleep medicine and offers appropriate examples of instruction and assessment. These principles and protocols for training can be used by a program to address weaknesses, assess trainees in a standardized fashion, and provide additional measurable benchmarks.
Those who judge trainee progress and achievement will find Competencies in Sleep Medicine to be the standard resource for defining and achieving student learning outcomes, while encouraging autonomous learning.
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This book is designed to enhance goals, curricula, and formative assessments in sleep training programs, specifically those accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). … The audience includes faculty, staff, and others who are involved with a sleep medicine training program. The book is also appropriate for anyone in a position to lead postgraduate programs who wishes some insight into sleep medicine in training programs.” (Margaret Park, Doody’s Book Reviews, June, 2014)Authors and Affiliations
