Abstract

The aim of the Resident Assessment Performance System (RAPS) project is to develop a web-based tool that would use routinely collected clinical data to evaluate a residents experience and performance. To ensure the tools usefulness and before any actual programming is done, it is essential to have an understanding of the stakeholders' needs and desires. Thus, our initial effort was a needs analysis, structured around specific individuals and themes. The results were combined with pilot data to develop draft screens that were reviewed by residents and educators to illustrate how resident profiling might improve the quality of resident training.
