Abstract
This article describes how a competency-based curriculum is implemented at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University. A competency-based curriculum can be implemented in either a traditional discipline-oriented curriculum or an integrated, case-based curriculum. Restructuring learning activities, assuring adequate numbers of faculty, and training faculty to assess competencies are essential for success. Schools of veterinary medicine must ensure that their graduates possess a wide range of abilities, in additional to scientific knowledge, if they are to practice successfully. A competency-based curriculum is the best means to do so.
