Abstract: 

"Systems based practice" (SBP) and "Practice based learning and improvement" (PBLI) are workshops in the CHAMP mini-course "Teaching on Today's Wards" (TTW) which aims to strengthen inpatient teaching skills, particularly across the ACGME core competencies, general internists, hospitalists and family practitioners and fellows who teach residents and medical students. Topics in TTW include: Improving the Teaching Process, Systems Based Practice, Practice Based Learning and Improvement, and Lifelong Learning.
