To identify the career development needs Vice Chair for Education in Surgery Departments (VCESDs).
In all, 33 VCESDs were invited to complete an online survey to identify the scope of duties, scholarly activity, job satisfaction, and career development needs.
A total of 29/33 (88%) VCESDs responded. Time constraints were the most frequent impediment for MDs vs. PhDs (p < 0.05). Dominant faculty development needs were conducting educational research (2.0 ± 0.78 for MDs, 1.33 ± 0.76 for PhDs), developing resident selection systems (1.68 ± 0.73), and mentorship programs (1.95 ± 0.77) for MDs, and developing teach the teacher programs (1 ± 0), and program performance evaluation systems (1.33 ± 0.76) for PhDs. The skills deemed to be of greatest importance were ability to communicate effectively (1.27 ± 0.55), resolve personnel conflicts (1.32 ± 0.57), and introduce change (1.41 ± 0.59). PhDs revealed a greater need to learn strategies for dealing with disruptive faculty (1.0 ± 0 vs 2.15 ± 0.87).
This information will inform the future career development of VCESDs and will assist Department Chairs who wish to recruit and retain VCESDs.
确定外科副主任教育(VCESD)的职业发展需求。
共邀请 33 名 VCESD 完成在线调查,以确定职责范围、学术活动、工作满意度和职业发展需求。
共有 29/33(88%)名 VCESD 做出回应。与博士相比,时间限制是医学博士面临的最常见障碍(p < 0.05)。主要的教师发展需求是进行教育研究(医学博士为 2.0 ± 0.78,博士为 1.33 ± 0.76)、开发住院医师选拔系统(1.68 ± 0.73)和指导计划(1.95 ± 0.77),而博士则需要开发教师培训计划(1 ± 0)和计划绩效评估系统(1.33 ± 0.76)。被认为最重要的技能是有效沟通的能力(1.27 ± 0.55)、解决人事冲突的能力(1.32 ± 0.57)和引入变革的能力(1.41 ± 0.59)。博士们更需要学习应对破坏性教师的策略(1.0 ± 0 与 2.15 ± 0.87)。
这些信息将为 VCESD 的未来职业发展提供信息,并为希望招聘和留住 VCESD 的系主任提供帮助。
