Presentation Description
Workshop Facilitators: Prof Ara Tekian and Prof John Norcini
Medical schools often offer their faculty educational materials or hands-on experiences in assessment, which generally have a positive effect on the quality of the educational program. However, the materials and workshops that are offered tend to focus on a few specific topics that are determined by the interest and expertise of staff or the traditions of the school and issues in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are not necessarily considered. In this interactive workshop, five essential components of a complete faculty development program in assessment will be discussed in small and large groups with practical examples with attention to gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, ability, and international medical graduates. This workshop itself will serve as an example of what participants might offer at their own institutions in the era of DEI. All participants will get five templates for organizing the workshops.
