The teaching of endoscopic procedures to trainees has radically changed from the previous "see one, do one, teach one" approach to the method termed "competency-based medical education" (CBME), which has transformed endoscopic training. Successful implementation of a CBME program requires learners to direct their own learning. Learners with a growth approach are more likely to thrive in such a system since they are learning-oriented and not performance-oriented. This method dictates that endoscopy mentors take a longer-term and broader view of the development of the trainee and are vital to cultivate a growth mindset in learners, while an endoscopy coach focuses on helping trainees apply principles of mastery learning and deliberate practice. The goal of the authors was to describe some principles of effective coaching and mentoring methods as applied to endoscopy training.
