Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 11 EBP 1528 short lesson, about 20 seconds
Misconception: A Competency Is a Topic Covered
Captions available
The idea
A competency states what a clinician can do. Teaching a topic and producing an ability are different achievements, and only the second is what a competency claims.
In practice
A course that covered appraisal and graduates who cannot appraise.
Where people slip
Coverage is easy to document and easy to mistake for competence. That is why the statements are written as abilities.
