Faculty retention is an issue of concern to schools and colleges of pharmacy. The reasons why faculty leave are multifactorial but often involve a breach of unwritten contract obligations between the faculty member and the organization. This article provides strategies for retaining faculty based on published literature that include perceived breaches of unwritten contracts and our own perspectives as departmental and university administrators and senior faculty members who have been involved in devising and implementing institutional change. Retention begins with recruitment but then needs to be nurtured during onboarding and as part of the overall enculturation process for new faculty members. Particular attention to the factors that influence the retention of underrepresented minorities must be incorporated to help ensure that pharmacy educators reflect the diversity of the US population.
教师保留是药学院校关注的问题。教师离职的原因有多种，但通常涉及到教师与组织之间未书面约定的合同义务的违反。本文基于已发表的文献，为保留教师提供了一些策略，其中包括违反未书面合同的行为，以及我们作为部门和大学管理人员以及参与制定和实施机构变革的资深教职员工的看法。保留始于招聘，但在入职和新教师整体融入过程中需要加以培养。必须特别注意影响代表性不足的少数群体保留的因素，以确保药学教育工作者反映美国人口的多样性。
