Differences between pediatric and adult endoscopic practice highlight the need for pediatric‐specific approaches to training and assessment. Intense efforts have been made over the past decade to define the competencies required to carry out pediatric endoscopic procedures and to develop tools to support competency‐based assessment. In addition, new instructional aids, such as magnetic imaging and simulation, have been introduced with the aim of enhancing training quality and accelerating skills acquisition. Ultimately, competency assessment metrics should be inextricably woven within a core endoscopy curriculum to ensure optimal integration of teaching, learning, feedback, and assessment throughout the entire spectrum of training in pediatric gastrointestinal procedures.
