The American Association for Bronchology and Interventional Pulmonology (AABIP) is using simulation as part of its Certificate of Added Qualification (CAQ) in Advanced Diagnostic Bronchoscopy, supporting a more standardized and objective approach to procedural assessment.
In this video, Carla Lamb discusses how the CAQ combines knowledge assessment, procedural assessment, validated tools, and structured simulation to evaluate advanced bronchoscopy skills. BRONCH Express supports this effort by helping bring EBUS-TBNA procedural education and assessment closer to the learner in a low-stakes environment.
Watch the full video to learn how simulation can support competence-based standardization in advanced bronchoscopy training and assessment, and why this approach may serve as a model for other associations and clinical disciplines.
