Abstract Competency-Based Medical Education (CBME) represents a transformative approach in modern medical training that emphasizes the acquisition of competencies, clinical skills, communication abilities, professionalism, ethics, and patient-centered care. Within this educational framework, skill laboratories have emerged as indispensable components for effective teaching and assessment of practical competencies among medical students. A skill laboratory provides a simulated learning environment where learners can repeatedly practice clinical procedures without causing harm to patients, thereby enhancing confidence, technical proficiency, clinical reasoning, and patient safety. Skill laboratories integrate simulation-based learning, mannequin training, task trainers, audiovisual technologies, and standardized patient interactions to facilitate experiential learning. They bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and clinical application while promoting self-directed learning, reflective practice, teamwork, and communication skills. The integration of skill laboratories into CBME significantly improves psychomotor abilities, reduces medical errors, enhances learner confidence, and prepares students for real-life clinical challenges. The present article discusses the concept, objectives, educational significance, teaching methodologies, advantages, challenges, and future perspectives of skill laboratories in Competency-Based Medical Education. Proper implementation of skill laboratories can substantially improve healthcare quality, clinical competence, and patient outcomes in modern medicine.
