Faculty Development for Resident-as-Teachers Programs
Call for Applications
Applications due: October 15, 2009
The HMS Academy Center for Teaching and Learning is pleased to announce a new faculty development effort directed at faculty responsible for resident-as-teacher programs within the HMS hospitals. Residents have long been appreciated as vital and central teachers of HMS students in the clinical arenas, and in recent years, there has been an expansion of programs directed at assisting residents to acquire teaching skills relevant to their roles as clinical faculty. The Resident-as-Teacher Faculty Development Program will be directed at refining the skills of those directing resident-as-teacher programs.
