Purpose of Study: Workplace-based assessment is an opportunity for a learner to be assessed in their community of practice by an expert rater. The challenges and biases brought into this assessment relationship are complex. A shift towards Competency Based Medical Education in post-graduate residency education has triggered consideration of how to implement feasible assessment tools for the operating room, the in-patient ward, and the outpatient clinic. Competent performance in outpatient clinic is vital to surgical practice, yet no assessment tool currently exists to assess daily performance

Assessment in Vocational Education and Training (VET) is complex and contentious. Assessment policies and practices in VET have been the subject of much debate over the last twenty years.

Debate about assessment practices within VET is often focussed on the technical or policy implications, rather than the lived experiences of students.
