2 Learning Objectives: To highlight state-of-the-art strategies for measuring continuing competence as a condition of recertification. To continue ICE's long standing educational efforts to assist member boards in developing lifelong learning policies and programs. Outline Introduction Karen Plaus Overview What is continued competence and why the need now Jerry Reid Organizational Examples American Osteopathic Association NBCOT NBCRNA ARRT Questions & Answers 2
3 Session Overview 1. What is Continued Competence? 2. Why is it Receiving Increased Attention? Continued Competence Defined (Version 1) The definition of continued competence is the same as the definition of competence at the point of initial certification, just at a later point in time. *Assumes you have defined competence at the point of initial certification. 3
4 Continued Competence Defined (Version 2) Continued competence is defined as being different (less focused/more focused, less stringent/more stringent, etc.) than competence at the point of initial certification. What is the Correct Way to Define? Either way so long as the construct of competence at the point of initial certification and at points beyond is clearly defined, widely communicated, and the requirements for initial certification and ongoing certification are consistent with the definition (if the same) or definitions (if they are different). 4
5 Certification: The Ice Handbook (2 nd Edition) Continued competence is the ability to provide service at specified levels of knowledge and skill, not only at the time of initial certification but throughout an individual s professional career. Why the Increased Attention? 1. Pace of Change 2. Consumer Expectations 3.

11 National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy Certification Renewal Programming Using Guided Self-Reflection Based on Practice Analysis and Assessment Pat Heeter, NBCOT James P. Henderson, PhD, Castle Worldwide Overview National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy provides certification for the occupational therapy profession throughout the United States. Occupational Therapist, Registered Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant Current Certification Renewal Program is based on a 1999 study and has been in place since that year. Revision addresses new initiatives and reports. 11
12 Background Five core competencies for health professionals (U.S. Institute of Medicine, 2003 and 2010): Provide Client-Centered Care Work in Interprofessional Teams Employ Evidence-Based Practice Apply Quality Improvement Utilize Informatics Institute for Credentialing Excellence (2008 and 2009) emphasizes assessment and stakeholder needs in certification renewal. Assumptions NBCOT stakeholders expect occupational therapy professionals to: Maintain competence at least at the level required for initial certification. Advance in competence through lifelong learning. Specialize in practice setting and client population. Stay current with respect to new research, treatments, modalities; evidence-based practices; service delivery systems; information systems. Work in a manner consistent with prevailing standards of professional practice. Use high quality resources for building competence. 12
13 Theoretical Perspective The underlying concept, reflection-in-action (Schön, 1983; Thompson and Thompson, 2008), is that occupational therapy professionals think about what they are doing, even while doing it. While practicing they ask themselves (for example) What features do I notice when I recognize this thing? What are the criteria by which I make this judgment? What procedures am I enacting when I perform this skill? How am I framing the problem that I am trying to solve? Assumptions Occupational therapy professionals: Have accumulated a reservoir of professional experience that is a rich resource for continued learning. Need to prepare for ever-changing responsibilities in their practice. Seek to improve their practice and are motivated to learn new concepts and skills. Are in the best position to direct their own learning and want to apply what they learn directly to their practice setting. 13
14 Purpose of the Program The objective is that occupational therapy professionals participating in the program will translate new knowledge into practice in such a way that it becomes embedded in their performance and leads to improved outcomes for clients and other stakeholders Certification Renewal Practice Analysis Study Entry-level proficiency has adequately been assessed by the certification examinations. Identified professional knowledge and skill, clinical reasoning, and other abilities that are essential to continuing competence. Supplied the basis for self assessment, assessment, and individual professional development activities. 14
15 Guided Self-Reflection Certificants review their current practice and record key information about their work setting. The online system asks probing questions and guiding questions. Guided self-reflection addresses the five core competencies: Provide Patient-Centered Care, Work in Interprofessional Teams, Employ Evidence-Based Practice, Apply Quality Improvement, and Use Informatics, plus Professional Responsibility. Guided Self-Reflection Directions: In self-reflection, consider your level of proficiency in occupational therapy and what it means to you and your practice. Use the scale to reflect on your confidence about your ability to perform competently in the following responsibilities and tasks. Whether confident or not, certificants can mark the area as a focus for professional development. 15
16 Guided Self-Reflection Provide Client Centered Care: Do I identify, respect, and care about clients differences, values, preferences, and expressed needs; relieve pain and suffering; coordinate continuous care; listen to, clearly inform, communicate with, and educate clients; share decision making and management; and continuously advocate disease prevention, wellness, and promotion of healthy lifestyles, including a focus on population health. 1 Confident 2 Not confident area to be considered for growth Guided Self-Reflection Two types of self-assessment augment information provided by certificants: multiple-choice questionnaires and simulation. Short multiple-choice self-assessments focus on knowledge of many topics validated by the certification renewal practice analysis. Animated case simulation exercises focus on the interaction of knowledge, skill, and professional judgment. 16
17 Professional Development Plan Results of the self reflection are available to the certificant 24/7 through a secure online portal enabling review and updates to be made at any time. Updates may include re-direction in response to changes in work or personal situations. Professional Development Plan As an outgrowth of guided self-reflection, certificants specify professional development goals and construct a personalized professional development plan (divided by Year 1, 2, 3 of the certification cycle). The system offers suggestions for continuing education and other professional development activities to facilitate the individual s decision making. Professional development activities are coded to the content framework from the certification renewal practice analysis. 17
18 Professional Development Plan As certificants complete the professional development program they have designed, the system records the professional development activity. The system offers certificants the opportunity to rate each professional development activity as it is completed. Certification Renewal Cycle 18
19 Evaluation The system invites certificants to evaluate the efficacy of the professional development plan relative to their needs at points specified by the individual Sources Cited: Committee on Planning a Continuing Health Professional Education Institute; Institute of Medicine.

24 Recertification Examination Exam every 8 years (every other recertification cycle) For individuals certified before January 1, 2024 the first exam would be for diagnostic purposes only The diagnostic exam will require extra CE above the minimum CE requirement for failure to meet pre-establish standards in each content area Nurse anesthetists will be required to achieve a passing score on all subsequent exams to maintain certification Nurse anesthetists certified January 1, 2024 and after will be required to achieve a passing score on the exam to maintain certification Lessons Learned Communications Patient Safety Focus Credentialing Mission and Vision Recurring Themes Timing Announcement Empirical Evidence Mistrust and Misunderstanding NBCRNA Positive Comments 24
