    Detailed Description

    A study will be performed using a e-Delphi process with Portuguese expert panel to generate recommendation statements related to the definitions of success and failure in Post-graduate medical education and its influencing factors and to determine the level of agreement for each statement from the panel as a whole. The following topics will be covered:

    1. Success in Post-graduate medical education: definition, influencing factors

    2. Failure in Post-graduate medical education: definition, influencing factors

    3. Management Consensus is achieved through iterative rounds of survey and revision to the statements until a pre-determined level of agreement is met (75% agreement).

    Part 1: planning and evidence review

    • Series of planning sessions with study investigators

    • Literature is reviewed/summarized

    • Initial statements will be developed based on Round 1 results. Round 1 will be composed of 4 open-ended questions

    Part 2: Survey to achieve consensus

    • Survey, based on the initial statements developed on Round 1 results

    • At least 2 additional rounds of review (remote rounds using an online platform) will be held to achieve consensus on each topic of interest and finalize consensus statements
