- W2311957792 abstract "Objective: We surveyed medical writing professionals regarding key knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) to include in a medical writing certification examination. Research design and methods: An online survey was conducted from April–July 2012 by the American Medical Writers Association (AMWA). Respondents (n=1177) rated which KSAs were most to least important in their work. Using text boxes, they could also add further comments. Results: Underlying domains of competency were gathering, evaluating, organizing, interpreting, and presenting. The 7 highest scores were all in the “presenting” domain of KSAs (mean scores of 4.65–4.52; 5 = extremely important).1 In subgroup analyses, the greatest number of significant differences in item ranking occurred between those who primarily write (or write and edit) and those who primarily edit. In addition, respondents suggested additional items not included in the survey but that they felt were important in their work; these included subject matter knowledge, software and multimedia skills, people skills (especially with diverse stakeholders), working as a team (team and process management), and contract negotiations. Conclusions: While some KSAs are broadly applicable, a meaningful medical writing certification examination must reflect the profession’s diversity in the types of questions asked. Differences seen between writers and editors in item rankings indicate that an eventual examination will be able to test KSAs that are more specific to medical writing, as opposed to other communication skills such as editing.
