Educator Development at OHSU
We offer trainings and resources for faculty and all educators to draw on, both to support their own career development and to improve their skills as educators and educational scholars. Though faculty are the primary audience for our activities, we will use the term “educators” throughout to indicate that there are a number of people at OHSU who contribute to the education mission alongside our faculty, in areas like assessment, student affairs, training and development, the library, and administration. Most of our initiatives are open to all educators at OHSU, and those that actually are restricted to faculty are noted.
