As professionals, family physicians are obliged to stay current on advances and trends in medicine and health care delivery. This is achieved through participation in a variety of activities that constitute continuing professional development (CPD). Participating in accredited activities to build teaching skills in one way physicians can earn MAINPRO® credits.
The UBC Family Practice Program provides clinical faculty with opportunities to obtain credits through the completion of modules and workshops. See below or contact your Site Faculty for Faculty Development for more information.
Faculty Development Modules: one-stop training kits for the busy faculty developer!
The UBC Department of Family Practice has developed a series
of modular teaching resources
to support site faculty in running
faculty development sessions with
their site preceptors.
These modules cover core topics
for clinical teaching and are
designed to encourage active
participation, skill-building, and
idea sharing between physician
colleagues.
Each module contains everything
you need to run a learning session,
including facilitator guides,
PowerPoint files, handouts,
evaluation forms, and even
invitation notices!
