Description
Julie Noyes and eight co-authors build a workforce informed frame that sets out thirty core skills for animal imaging experts. Training for this specialty lacked a frame tied to what the job truly demands. The study came out in twenty twenty-six.
The frame, called VIEW, was built and checked in three phases over about a year. A small expert group drafted skills through talks and blind rating rounds. A survey of board certified experts and trainees then rated each skill for weight and clarity. A final group merged the survey finds to lock the frame. Of dozens of draft skills, a core set passed the agreed bar at each stage.
