Curricula components for entrustable professional activities for the subspecialty of pediatric cardiology

Entrustable professional activities (EPAs) for the subspecialty of pediatric cardiology were defined and developed by the task force committee for revised training guidelines chaired by Dr. Robert Ross in 2015 [1]. These were subsequently vetted, approved and published by the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) and Council of Pediatric Subspecialties (CoPS) [2,3]. The EPA framework complements the competency/milestone framework and their integration provides a more comprehensive perspective on learner performance.
