[IM]EDucators Returns for 2021-2022 Academic Year

August 18, 2021

[IM]EDucators, the educational faculty development series, is back for the 2021 academic year! This learning series, created from faculty requests across the department for additional training in teaching skills, debuted with four sessions in March 2021.

After a successful four session pilot this past spring, the Office for Educator Development and Scholarship is excited to announce the 2021-22 [IM]EDucators Zoom faculty development series. As an alternative for those who do not have the time or ability to participate in lengthier faculty development courses, or for those who need a refresher, these highly interactive one hour sessions can add up to have a big impact on your teaching skills.

Please mark your calendar for the first Friday of each month at noon and join us on Zoom for these indispensable topics. Whether you teach preclinical or clinical students, residents, or fellows in the hospital or clinic, you will find plenty of helpful teaching tips from our seasoned master educators. All previous and current sessions will be available on the website. All sessions are available for CME credit and be viewed on the department’s calendar (search for [IM]Educators).

Note: You can save an event to your calendar by clicking “Add event to Calendar” on the website calendar listing.
