Our Faculty Development Programs are designed to support excellence in clinical care, classroom teaching, and scholarly achievement. We provide resources and educational opportunities that strengthen instructional skills across learning environments—from bedside and clinical precepting to small-group facilitation and large-group lectures.
Mission-Specific Faculty Development
Clinical Teaching
The College of Medicine’s Division of Continuous Professional Learning is committed to supporting our clinical and classroom educators through high-quality presentations, CME activities, practical resources, and comprehensive faculty development initiatives.
Classroom Teaching
CPL provides faculty with a comprehensive suite of teaching strategies, curriculum development tools, assessment resources, and classroom technology support designed to elevate instructional effectiveness and enrich student learning.
Research
Faculty are encouraged to initiate and maintain a program of research or create scholarly products that contribute to the knowledge of their respective fields and/or impact the local, regional, national, or international community.
Faculty Development Programs
The peer evaluation program provides a forum for faculty to receive feedback from their peers on their teaching. Faculty Development offers guidance for the peer review process and manages the associated forms. Faculty Development representatives also offer to serve as reviewers.
If you would like to participate in our peer observation program, please contact Amanda Ramos.
Faculty Development in partnership with the Marketing Team and Harriet F. Ginsburg library team, hosted a series of events focusing on Developing Your Online Presence for our faculty.
