The Faculty Development and Promotion Committee aims to assist GIM faculty of all levels by encouraging mentorship, opportunities for development, and strategies to successfully promote within the institution. 

Previous and ongoing projects have included

  • Designing and distributing surveys for faculty to self-identify strengths (ex: in clinical practice, clinical research, case report writing, medical student and/or resident teaching) to promote informal mentorship opportunities
  • Ongoing participation in the university-wide Faculty Mentor Training Program (FMTP)
  • Identifying and promoting speakers to discuss topics relevant to faculty development at GIM Division Grand Rounds and quarterly forums
  • Offering informal review sessions for faculty submitting files to Academic Resource Center (ARC) for either merit advancement or promotion
