Kelly Dore shared thisI'm incredibly proud to see this landmark meta-analysis published in Medical Education. When we created Casper at McMaster Faculty of Health Sciences, our goal was to help admissions committees better understand the whole applicant. Academic achievement is an important predictor of future success, but we also believed it was possible to meaningfully assess the interpersonal and professional qualities that are equally critical to becoming an exceptional healthcare professional. This meta-analysis provides the strongest evidence to date that these attributes can be assessed with open-response SJTs at admissions and offer meaningful, additive insights into performance throughout training. Grateful to the many researchers, institutions, and collaborators who made this possible, including Alex MacIntosh, Colin Henning, Safea A., Ivy Erickson, Sobia Shariff Hussaini, Elizabeth Morgan, Yoon Soo Park, and Amir H Sam. It's exciting to see the evidence base continue to grow to assess the competencies we know are important to a strong physician workforce. #MedEd #Admissions #Assessment #EvidenceBasedEducation #HPEKelly Dore shared thisAs Higher Ed institutions and admissions leaders face mounting pressure to identify and develop cohorts who will succeed both academically and professionally, a major international meta-analysis published in the world-renowned Medical Education journal confirms the predictive validity of the Casper situational judgment test (SJT) by Acuity Insights. Key findings include: • Applicants who scored higher on the Casper test consistently went on to perform better professionally during training. • When programs measure the overlapping interpersonal and professional skills at admissions and in training, the ability to predict student success nearly doubles. • Using SJTs in admissions can help build stronger student cohorts to reduce remediation burden and improve student outcomes. “The research published in Medical Education provides the most compelling answer to date on how open-response SJT scores relate to future performance,” says Dr. Alex MacIntosh, PhD, Senior Research Manager at Acuity Insights. “When programs thoughtfully evaluate skills like communication, professionalism, and teamwork, the predictive signal nearly doubles.” Read the full meta-analysis in Medical Education, the peer-reviewed journal published by the Association for the Study of Medical Education (ASME)-: https://lnkd.in/gVyEP3xw

Kelly Dore shared thisReally excited to see this come together! There’s a growing body of evidence showing that SJTs are a powerful way to assess professional competencies - and this new Acuity Insights report pulls that research into one place, along with how institutions are actually putting it into practice across admissions and learner development. I’ve personally been researching SJTs for over two decades, starting at McMaster University and continuing now through my work with Acuity. What continues to stand out is this: when designed well, SJTs capture critical professional skills that traditional academic metrics often miss, in admissions and in-program. And that matters. When you combine both academic performance and professional competencies you get a much fuller, more accurate picture of someone's potential and how to help them succeed. Where are you seeing gaps between academic metrics and real-world readiness - and how are you addressing them?Kelly Dore shared thisIn high-stakes, real-world situations that involve pressure, ambiguity, and competing priorities, human skills are what define success. That’s where Situational Judgment Tests (SJTs) come in. SJTs don’t measure knowledge; they reveal how people think, respond, and make decisions when it counts. Acuity Insights has released a brand new report that breaks down the evidence behind SJTs–and why they’re becoming essential for both admissions and in-program learner development in higher education.

Kelly Dore shared thisBig day for Acuity Insights! We’ve officially launched our On-Demand Video Interview solution and I’m genuinely excited about what this unlocks for programs and institutions navigating the growing complexity of admissions in health sciences and higher education. This product was built for scale - but more importantly, for information. It gives programs a richer, more human view of applicants in addition to the other tools they use, while giving candidates space to show up as themselves rather than just as data points in a file. What I’m most proud of is the team behind this work. They took a hard problem - how to add additional pixels into the picture of the applicant without losing trust, fairness, or thoughtfulness - and approached it with curiosity, rigour, and care. That kind of innovation doesn’t come from moving fast alone. It comes from being intentional about who you’re building for and why. This launch brings us one step closer to an admissions future that is both more scalable and more human. It isn't an easy balance - which makes it worth celebrating!

Kelly Dore shared thisThrilled to have been a supervisor for Lyndal Parker-Newlyn’s thoughtful thesis on “Choosing tomorrow’s rural doctors”. Stay tuned for her papers to come next year! Congratulations Lyndal!Kelly Dore shared this"Choosing tomorrow’s rural doctors: An analysis of medical student selection in an Australian rural context". A big thank you to everyone - 415 pages, 85,000 words, ten years in the making and my PhD is complete. My thesis is grounded in the belief that equitable access to medical education is a societal imperative, and that rural communities deserve healthcare shaped by people who understand their needs, contexts, and inherent value. I have been fortunate to receive so much encouragement, mentorship and critical guidance from my PhD supervisors A/Prof Kelly Dore and Prof Kylie Mansfield, and my thesis examiners Prof Gary Rogers and Prof Julia Blitz. And of course my dear family have provided unwavering support and love over this long journey - thank you Dr Phill Newlyn, Alex and Marnie - I couldn't have done it without you! To my medical students, past and present: thank you for your curiosity, compassion, and courage. It has been my privilege to learn alongside you, and I look forward to watching you shape the future of our profession. May this work honour the belief that thoughtful selection and meaningful education can build a medical workforce that serves every community. I'll be enjoying my Christmas break, but then keep your eyes peeled for some publications coming your way hopefully in 2026. I have a LOT of data to share😄 University of Wollongong #ThisIsUOW

Kelly Dore posted thisAI is changing how students study – and beyond that, it’s reshaping the pedagogy and foundation of how we teach and learn across #HigherEd. Today’s students are already using #GenerativeAI to brainstorm ideas, summarize lectures, and collaborate more efficiently, but the real transformation lies ahead. #AgenticAI is now serving as a personalized learning companion, offering adaptive feedback and real-time support that reflects each learner’s needs. It challenges us to fundamentally rethink how we design, deliver, and evaluate education in a way that centers both equity and authenticity. We must recognize AI as an integral part of #CurriculumDesign and embed AI literacy across disciplines, not just technical courses. The goal isn’t to automate learning — it’s to make it more human. It’s a chance to reimagine learning with more reflection, mentorship, and creativity at its core. How is your institution adapting to AI’s impact on pedagogy? #FutureOfLearning #AIinEducation #StudentSuccess

Kelly Dore shared thisAs AI transforms the workforce, technical skills aren’t enough. This week we released a new report at Acuity Insights, Future-Proofing Students: Professional Skills in the Age of AI, showing that 75% of long-term job success comes from professional and durable skills like empathy, resilience, collaboration — not just hard skill expertise. Yet across #HigherEd, too many students are graduating without fully developing or focusing on these critical skills. It’s time for higher ed to rethink how we prep students, from admissions to graduation. That means assessing holistic skills earlier and embedding human-centered growth throughout the student journey. The workforce is evolving — our graduates should be, too. 🔗 Check out the full report here! https://lnkd.in/eVSTqvkX #AIinEducation #FutureOfWork #DurableSkills #StudentSuccess #ProfessionalSkills #SoftSkills

Kelly Dore posted thisThe first AI-powered graduating class is here, and they’re redefining what it means to be college and career ready. 🎓 The Class of 2026 entered college in the fall of 2022 right before the launch of ChatGPT. Since the start of their first semester, they’ve had access to #GenerativeAI as part of their learning experience. To them, it hasn't been an optional tool — it’s been a constant presence in how they study, collaborate, and prepare for the #FutureOfWork. This generation of students isn’t just experimenting with AI. They’ve been active integrators – from using it for essay help, summarizing notes, or brainstorming new ideas. Meanwhile, many #HigherEducation institutions are still catching up. It’s time to rethink how we define and assess college-readiness in the age of AI. We must: ✅ Embed AI fluency and ethics into core curriculum ✅ Evolve assessment strategies to reflect real-world learning behaviours ✅ Provide clarity on how students can use these tools responsibly ✅ Evolve our curriculum and pedagogy to acknowledge how AI is shaping our education The Class of 2026 is entering senior year with AI at their fingertips. Their expectations and learning habits have shifted, and it’s time for educators to stop treating AI as a threat and taking initiative and setting the standards for how to bring value to these tools. How is your institution adapting in the face of students who have had AI since day one?

Kelly Dore reacted on thisKelly Dore reacted on thisA few things I've been sharing with folks asking me for tips on getting into different orgs or applying for roles in general: 1. Research the leadership 2. Research the company and its values 3. Heavily weigh whether it's worth joining an org that does layoffs like clockwork 4. Heavily weigh whether it's worth joining an org that laid off most of a team to replace them with AI 5. If you know someone, get a referral 6. Customize your resume and cover letter 7. Try to be one of the first people to apply to the open role you think is a fit A little more colour on some of that... I am surprised to chat with some folks and find out they REALLY want to work somewhere, yet when I ask about the organization, they can't answer much. They're attracted by a logo, their own experience of the products, or the clout they think the name could add to their resume. And honestly, those things are fine if that's what you want, but this lack of homework can also get you into less-than-ideal situations. First, I recommend researching the direct leader you'd be reporting to, and if it's a smaller organization, researching the senior leaders as well. What's their background? Do you think they know their stuff? What does their personality seem like? Do you think it's genuine or highly curated? Toxic tech bro? You're trying to get a sense not just of what it would be like to report to them, but also of the org's overall culture, since culture is closely tied to the example leadership sets and what they enable. Then, research the rest of the org. Look it up on places like Glassdoor, or even just social media. What do people say about it? Reach out to previous employees in your network and ask them about it. Many folks and I have also talked about how often an org does layoffs, if at all, and whether it's clear why. If they seem to cut people like clockwork, especially in the area you'd be applying for, is that OK with you? To me, it says a lot about how that type of org absolutely does not value people. Similarly, if an org has laid off an entire team to try and replace them with AI, how do you feel about that? Could those people have been used better alongside AI? What does it say about leadership that makes decisions like that? Did it work out for them, or could you be one of the first hires as they learn some humility from that decision? Lastly, logistically, the tech space is super wacky right now and way too competitive. So, if you do want to apply somewhere, apply early, get a referral if you can, and customize your resume and cover letter for that role and employer. If it's important to you, don't leave it generic. Make sure how you present yourself aligns with their culture and values, and the items they are looking for. If you can't get a referral to help you get in the door, you often have to be one of the first applicants to be seen. ATS systems are poo. I hope this helps someone!

Kelly Dore reacted on thisKelly Dore reacted on thisA slightly belated reflection on a wonderful few days in Adelaide for the 18th National Rural Health Conference with my colleagues from UOW GSM. Since returning home I've been a little occupied with medical school admissions interviews, so I'm only just getting around to sharing a few highlights! I was delighted to present our work on how medical school admissions systems can shape inequity in the rural medical workforce. Our central finding was that treating rurality as a simple yes-or-no category can conceal important differences within the rural applicant population. Regional applicants make up much of the rural cohort, pulling the overall “rural” average upward, while the greater disadvantage experienced by applicants from remote and very remote communities becomes less visible. This matters because medical school admissions are not simply about selecting students. They are also a workforce policy lever. At a policy level, we need to move beyond binary eligibility definitions, recognise the diversity within rural populations, align admissions policy with workforce need, and ensure our selection mechanisms reach applicants from the most underserved communities. One of the most rewarding aspects of the conference was the opportunity to discuss these ideas with clinicians, educators, researchers and community members from across Australia who are all working toward the same goal: improving health outcomes for rural, regional and remote communities. Thanks to everyone who attended the session, asked questions, shared ideas, or simply stopped for a chat. And yes, Adelaide was looking pretty spectacular too.

Kelly Dore reacted on thisThis one feels pretty special. When I joined Acuity Insights, one of the opportunities I was excited about was reimagining how we bring our partner community together. This week, that vision came to life with our first Community Forum. From developing the strategy, to building the attendee experience, demand generation, managing logistics and learning an entirely new event platform, this was one of those projects that stretched across every part of event marketing — including plenty of testing, troubleshooting, and creative problem-solving along the way. It was also a true team effort across Marketing, Customer Success, and Sales. Bringing the right content and voices to the Forum was a huge part of making the vision work, and I’m especially grateful to Lisa G. and Nicole Frangos for being instrumental in shaping the agenda and securing the speakers who brought those conversations to life. What I enjoyed most was how collaborative the entire process was. There’s something incredibly rewarding about starting with an idea and watching it become a real experience through the creativity, expertise, and teamwork of so many people. Another big shout out to Mandy Kaur for helping bring this event across the finish line. I couldn’t have asked for a better teammate to navigate the final stretch with, and have some fun along the way!

Kelly Dore reacted on thisKelly Dore reacted on thisLast week, I had the chance to attend and present at the Northeast Business Deans' Association (NEBDA) Conference, hosted by Quinnipiac University - School of Business, under the theme "The Power of Experience." Dean Holly Raider opened the day with a question she saw years ago, posted for students in their business school: "Why are you here and not somewhere else?" Provost Debra Liebowitz picked up the same thread in her remarks — schools need to be able to answer that question clearly and with conviction for every student. A few things that stuck with me: Experiential learning looks different everywhere, but the instinct is the same. Salem State University Bertolon School of Business has built relationships with 100+ businesses across its North Shore to place students on real projects. Rutgers Business School runs "Road to…" tracks — Wall Street, CPA, Consulting, Silicon Valley, and Supply Chain — that pair coursework with mentorship from working professionals. Bryant University College of Business students manage a $4 million student-run investment fund. Different paths, same idea: put students in front of real problems before they graduate. These examples dovetailed nicely into my presentation on embedding Professional Skills Development from Acuity Insights into business programs — this was a good chance to talk with deans about giving students structured evidence of how their durable skills are growing, not just their GPA, so programs have something to act on. Thanks to Quinnipiac School of Business and NEBDA for hosting, and to Dean Holly Raider for the warm welcome. #HigherEd #ExperientialLearning #NEBDA2026 #ProfessionalSkillsDevelopment

Kelly Dore reacted on thisYesterday I had the absolute pleasure of emceeing our very first Acuity Insights Community Forum, and I'm still reflecting on the conversation. Our panel on AI in Education was a real highlight for me. Hearing leaders from professional education share candid thoughts on how AI is changing how assessments and delivering curriculum was golden. So many gems from Kelly, Dr. Bill Fuller, Michael Roscoe, MPAS, Ph.D., PA-C and Cole Walsh in the discussion! No surprise to me that a lot of this responsibility rests on Faculty and Administrators understanding the impact of AI by understanding more about AI themselves, in particular around critical thinking skills. Lots to consider and unpack. What I love the most about gatherings like this one virtually is seeing our partners and our team learning and sharing. More than 180 #highered leaders coming together to share knowledge and compare notes on challenges. I always come away having learned new things, and yesterday was no exception. BIG thanks to our panelists for their insights, and to everyone who joined and added their voice to the conversation.
