Excerpt

In 2013, the Association of American Medical Colleges identified personal and professional development (PPD) as one of eight competency domains for medical students.1 PPD encompasses a range of skills, including stress management, adaptability, work-life balance, trustworthiness, and self-confidence, which students are expected to develop throughout training.1 Despite efforts to formalize PPD training, students are primarily exposed through the hidden curriculum, with little research on how to teach or assess these PPD competencies.2, 3
