Abstract
Due to the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, face-to-face educational events and classes were transferred to a distance format, so the traditional II All-Russian Olympiad with international participation in therapy was also held in absentia on April 26-28, 2021. This format provided the opportunity for 759 students and residents to participate in it from 82 educational and scientific organizations in Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Belarus. This article analyzes the Olympiad held in order to study the possibility of assessing professional competencies using distance technologies among students of 4-6 courses and residents of a therapeutic profile. As tools for assessing the formation of competencies, we used: testing knowledge using an electronic platform for remote testing and assessing practical skills using a computer screen simulator Body Interact. The analysis of the results showed that the bank of test tasks and clinical cases is valid, reliable, and can be used to assess the professional competencies of students in specialty and residency programs of a therapeutic profile.
