Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs)- They’re Here, Now What

Entrustable Professional Activities, or EPAs, is a term you may have heard…or maybe not. EPAs represent a tectonic shift in surgical training and how residents will be evaluated. So, what are EPAs? How will they affect you? And what do you need to know? We sat down with Dr. George Sarosi, previous member of the ABS EPA Advisory Council and current General Surgery Residency Program Director at the University of Florida, to answer all of our questions now that EPAs are here.
