Creating and confirming observable professional activities (OPAs): A brief report on the practical approach for OPA design for resident education.

This study created 10 OPAs that can potentially help provide targeted feedback to residents on their competency in caring for patients with spinal cord injury. With regular usage, OPAs are designed to provide residents with insight into how they are progressing towards independent practice. In the future, studies should aim to assess the feasibility and utility of implementing the newly developed OPAs.
