One of the responsibilities of a consultant is to identify the clinical
competence of trainees by observing them at work. The attributes of
clinical competence in anaesthesia were defined by interviewing a group of
consultants and trainees. Observation of practice was believed to be
important in monitoring competence and the supervising consultants all
believed that they could recognize competent performance. The account of
the structure of observation provided by the anaesthetists is used as the
basis of advice on how to conduct an assessment of trainees' developing
professionalism by use of the specialist's professional judgement.
