Coaching and mentoring are critical components of a training program in health professions education. Recent transitions to competency-based curricula have created tensions between traditional roles of teacher, assessor, coach, and mentor. Participants in this webinar will develop strategies to navigate these tensions, and build educational systems to facilitate effective coaching in the moment and coaching over time. Viewing coaching as the return on investment for trainees in competency-based education, we will discuss the roles of coaching and mentorship to promote the growth mindset within their programs and departments.
