Faculty Development Short Course
Program Chair: Ginger E. Holt, MD, FAOA
For new program directors, associate program directors, osteopathic program directors, general faculty, and anyone interested in or involved with resident education, this course provides education to satisfy fundamental faculty development needs. The course runs on a three-year cycle, designed to follow the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery (ABOS) competency template of Knowledge, Skills, and Behaviors. One of these three elements will be covered annually in each short course, so that it will be comprehensive over three years. For 2022, the theme is Knowledge.
Objectives
- Participants will become familiar with current concepts in adult learning of didactic knowledge.
- Participants will see how those concepts can be applied in their training programs, including tips and tricks on how to update their faculty’s teaching materials.
- The course will explore these objectives in the context of current knowledge assessment mechanisms — OITE and ABOS exams.
