Developing Faculty Competency in Assessment

Yale collaborates with the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) to co-sponsor a regional faculty development course for academic faculty concentrated on assessment skills. The four-part course is highly experiential and delivered as a blend of virtual and in-person sessions. The course will address learner assessment skills (such as direct observation and feedback) as well as tools and strategies to help faculty best meet their programmatic requirements (clinical competency committee input, multisource evaluations). The target audience includes program directors, associate program directors, fellowship directors, clerkship directors, chairs, heads of clinical competency committees and other core faculty with major responsibility for assessment of students, residents and fellows.

This course will be offered in September 2025.

    YES!: Job vs. Career: Increase Efficiency and Improve Impact

    This session will establish context as to why it is necessary to differentiate jobs from careers, propose a rubric to classify and triage job versus career needs, and offer specific, behaviorally-focused action plans to make more time available for career development. Topics for which action plans are offered include calendar management, explicit prioritization of important but non-urgent tasks, more effective email use, and mitigating electronic distractors. The need to say no to particular asks and opportunities will also be covered. While applicable to faculty at all stages, the session is likely most impactful for those in early and mid-careers.
