Faculty Development Programme


Faculty development is a process by which medical school faculty, including preceptors teaching in the clinical setting, work systematically to improve their skills in the following areas:

(1) Educational skills
(2) Leadership skills
(3) Skills necessary to engage in scholarly activities
(4) Personal development

Faculty development activities are successful when individuals' goals in these five areas are being met and when simultaneously the goals of the organization are being met.
