Abstract
- The National Board of Examinations was established to boost the quality of medical education by laying down exclusive norms, uniform standards and a national level evaluation for the postgraduate medical courses. The content and context of the training curriculum is well updated as per advances in the field and current requirements. Diplomate of National Board (DNB) courses are considered to be at par with the postgraduate and post doctorate degrees for all intents and purposes. The introduction of a formative assessment with objective evaluation pattern has improved the scope of the board. Moving on to a competency-based training with emphasis on novel research can maximise the quality of training to international standards. Training DNB teachers and assessors in the newer teaching and assessment methods can improve the calibre of residents. Stringent monitoring and review of the training can increase the credibility of the courses and the board can be expected to cater for students abroad. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
