Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="author" id="ab0005"> <title id="st0005">Summary</title> <sec> <p id="sp0005">Although competency-based education is well established in health care education, research shows that the competencies do not always match the reality of clinical workplaces. Therefore, there is a need to design feasible and evidence-based competency frameworks that fit the workplace reality. This theoretical paper outlines a competency-based framework, designed to facilitate learning, assessment and supervision in clinical workplace education. Integration is the cornerstone of this holistic competency framework.</p> </sec> </abstract>
