A questionnaire survey among 8749 Danish physicians about how the CanMEDS roles apply in an international context. Response rate 42.8% (3,476). The mean rating of importance of competence was 4.2 (SD 0.6). Ratings of confidence increased from interns to specialists. Differences between specialty groups' evaluation of importance and confidence were evident. This study provides an outline of the validity of the CanMEDS roles in a non-Canadian setting. More research in how these aspects of competence are best taught across countries and specialties is needed.

However, there is no clear description of what specialized expertise in palliative care entails, whereas this is important in order for generalists to know who they can consult in complex palliative care situations and for timely referral of patients to palliative care specialists.

Purpose: Competency-based medical education relies on feedback from workplace-based assessment (WBA) to direct learning.
