Physician Assistant: Curriculum Mapping and Competency Tracking

David Stocker and Carol Gorney presented a webinar on Curriculum Mapping and Competency Tracking, highlighting how these tools in Exxat Prism can support accreditation, curriculum improvement, and student success.

5 Key Takeaways:

1. Curriculum mapping supports accreditation and continuous improvement by identifying gaps, overlaps, sequencing, and how courses align with ARC-PA standards.
2. Curriculum Mapping and Competency Tracking work together—mapping shows where learning outcomes are taught, while competency tracking measures whether students are actually achieving those outcomes.
3. Map with Leo can significantly streamline curriculum mapping, providing AI-generated mapping recommendations that can be reviewed and adjusted by programs before being applied.
4. Mapping reports and dashboards provide actionable insights into mapped and unmapped standards, course coverage, curriculum gaps, and areas that may be over- or under-mapped—helping programs make informed curriculum decisions.
5. Competency tracking enables early identification and support of struggling students through thresholds, longitudinal performance views, and student-level drill-downs, helping programs determine when remediation or additional clinical exposure may be needed.
