To collect baseline data and describe how medical schools handle faculty affairs and faculty development responsibilities.
In January 2000, the authors surveyed faculty affairs designees at 125 U.S. medical schools, using a questionnaire developed in consultation with a group of faculty affairs professionals.
The responding 76 medical schools (61%) support over four times as many offices of faculty affairs as faculty development offices. Core functions of faculty affairs offices include administrative support for appointments, promotions, and tenure committees; faculty information and policies; faculty governance processes; and department chairs' recruitment support and personnel management issues.
While a consensus is emerging about the functions of a faculty affairs office, no school has a comprehensive faculty development system, in contrast to most industries, which must be more forward-looking to compete for talent.
收集基线数据，并描述医学院校如何处理教师事务和教师发展职责。
2000年1月，作者使用与一组教师事务专业人员协商制定的问卷，对125所美国医学院校的教师事务指定人员进行了调查。
做出回应的76所医学院校（61%）所支持的教师事务办公室数量是教师发展办公室数量的四倍多。教师事务办公室的核心职能包括为任命、晋升和终身教职委员会提供行政支持；教师信息和政策；教师治理流程；以及系主任的招聘支持和人员管理问题。
虽然关于教师事务办公室的职能正在形成共识，但与大多数行业相比，没有一所学校拥有全面的教师发展体系，而大多数行业必须更具前瞻性以争夺人才。
