Abstract
[Purpose] To newly develop a training report with clear statements of educational goals and proficiency standards for shared use between physical therapy schools and clinical training facilities, aiming to resolve the problems of the poor objectivity and uniformity of conventional clinical training assessments of trainee physical therapists. [Subjects and Methods] The newly developed training report for use in long-term clinical education. A new rubric was constructed using the concept of performance assessment based on objective assessments of students abilities and the very subjective conventional assessments of instructors. [Results] The new rubric clearly states the evaluation bases and educational goals of the physical therapy school. [Conclusion] The new rubric is an innovative tool for education which has wide-ranging possibilities, as it could be used for the evaluation of new hire programs and personal evaluations as well as clinical education.
