CCX ASSESSMENTS
The CCX (Clinical Competency Examination) is a clinical skills/reasoning exam that uses standardized patient encounters followed by computer-based documentation and clinical reasoning. CCX exams are administered throughout the curriculum:
- at the middle and end of each Unit in Year 1,
- at the end of each Unit in Year 2,
- at the end of each Pediatric and Psychiatry core rotation (Internal Medicine has End-of-Clerkship standardized patient exams, but they do not include the CCX post-encounter), and
- in the Summative Clinical Competency Examination (SCCX), in Year 3 after students complete their clinical rotations.
A sample case (J Keller) can be used for orientation and practice is available to Y1 - Y3 students. This website is designed to contain additional instructions and materials necessary and/or helpful to those preparing to take CCX exams.
