Faculty development leads to job satisfaction
Hospitalist Leadership Connection, March 29, 2011
Although first-year academic hospitalist faculty may be skilled clinically, they might not be when it comes to teaching, research, quality improvement, and leadership, according to a new study in the March Journal of Hospital Medicine.
The University of California, San Francisco, Division of Hospital Medicine created series of a courses (core seminars, coaching programs, teaching courses, grand rounds, and lunch seminars) to develop faculty knowledge, skills, attitudes, and scholarly output. After undergoing this faculty training, faculty reported more work satisfaction, comfort in those skills, and improved academic output.
“Building [faculty development] programs can be effective to foster the development and satisfaction of new faculty while also creating a shared commitment towards an academic mission,” the study states.
