    Abstract:
    The Royal College Competence by Design curriculum in obstetrics and gynaecology will launch in 2019, and it will depend heavily on multiple tools for accurate resident assessment. Several Canadian obstetrics and gynaecology residency programs use rotation-specific examinations at the end of various rotations for formative feedback. The obstetrics and gynaecology residency program at the University of Toronto adopted end-of-rotation examinations (EOREs) in 2014. We conducted a national survey to assess the current use of EOREs across Canada and to examine the attitudes and beliefs of residents and program directors regarding their use. We discuss faculty and resident experiences with EOREs and their perceptions of them. We also consider the role and benefit of these examinations in the context of the educational literature, and how they may integrate with future competency-based medical education frameworks.
