Thank you for attending!

Thank you to all of our presenters and attendees at this year's Faculty Development Summit.

If you were not able to attend live (or if you would like to refresh yourself on something that was shared), recordings of all of the sessions have been linked to in the archive section below.

Description

The Faculty Development Summit convenes faculty development stakeholders from across OHSU School of Medicine departments and institutes for a day of peer-to-peer learning, discussion, discovery and planning.

Whether meticulously designed and researched, or informal in their original formation, faculty development efforts that have a proven track record of success or offer lessons for others are worth sharing. Likewise, given the numerous individual or departmental level efforts in faculty development, there is a good chance that many unique approaches to faculty development are otherwise unknown to many who could benefit from that knowledge and experience.

For these reasons, the yearly Faculty Development Summit seeks to be a place where good ideas can be shared, productive conversations can be had, and the seeds for new faculty development initiatives can be planted.

The 2024 summit was a one-day, in-person event, held in the OHSU Auditorium (Old Library) on Marquam Hill, with remote participation options available.

After initial opening addresses by the Associate Dean for Faculty Development and the Interim Dean of the School of Medicine, there were a series of lightning round presentation sessions, immediately followed by panel Q&A and discussions.

Each session focused on one domain of faculty development. Presenters gave a 10-minute presentation on either their current approach to supporting faculty in that domain, or a planned approach to supporting faculty in a given domain. Each session featured up to five presentations.

Session topics for 2024 include: Mentorship; onboarding and orientation; well-being; diversity; equity and inclusion, faculty skill building; coaching; scholarship; and promotion and tenure.

The 2023 summit was a one-day, in-person event, be held in the OHSU Auditorium (Old Library) on Marquam Hill, with external guest lectures presenting remotely.

The summit was broken up into three sessions. Each of session included a guest lecture from a national leader in faculty development, immediately followed by Q&A. OHSU participants broke out into small facilitated workshop groups to discuss what they have learned and how such lessons could be applied to their own faculty development efforts.

Registration is open for the 2022 Faculty Development Summit

The 2022 summit was a one-day, in-person event, held in the OHSU Auditorium (Old Library) on Marquam Hill, with remote participation options available.

After an initial opening address on the state of faculty development in the School of Medicine, there was a series of lightning round presentation sessions, immediately followed by panel Q&A and discussions.

Each session focused on one domain of faculty development. Presenters gave a 10-minute pitch on either their current approach to supporting faculty in that domain or a planned approach to supporting faculty in a given domain. Each session featured up to five presentations.

The aim was to select presentations in an effort to provide a balanced mix of small and large departments, while also highlighting departments who have already begun to measure outcomes from their initiatives or who have identified a problem or gap for which they have designed and implemented a new approach and have a plan in place to measure outcomes. We also hoped to highlight presenters whose departments are actively addressing diversity and inclusion and supporting equitable program design.
