Abstract

Outcome-based education (OBE) has brought along a significant development in health professions education in the past decade. The shift from a process-driven to product-driven model of education is valuable for ensuring graduate quality and facilitating global movement of healthcare workers. Such a model can align the expectations of key stakeholders in an era of rapid knowledge expansion and technological advancement. Nevertheless, the experienced benefits of OBE depend on the effectiveness of its implementation. This article therefore provides practical tips and strategies for implementing OBE in order to maximize its potential.
