To examine impacts of a structured mentorship committee program on academic promotion and participant perceptions because impacts of formal mentorship programs for clinical faculty are unknown.
This prospective cohort study at a Midwestern Veterans Affairs tertiary care system from December 17, 2019 to December 31, 2022 included clinical track faculty in the Medicine Service below the rank of Clinical Associate Professor. Mentoring meetings (mentee, committee chair, and mentors) were generally held twice annually. All participants were surveyed after each meeting (response rate: 100%).
All 23 of 23 (100%) eligible faculty were enrolled as mentees, and 49 distinct meetings occurred. Three (13%) mentees were promoted, and the remaining 20 (87%) continued in the program. Mean scores (SD), scaled 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), for mentors and mentees were 4.71 (0.51) and 4.80 (0.54) for "effective use of my time"; 4.58 (0.64) and 4.37 (0.49) for "appropriate progress since last meeting"; 4.52 (0.66) and 4.31 (0.64) for "program increased my work satisfaction"; and 4.07 (0.96) and 3.75 (0.92) for "program reduced my work burnout," respectively.
Clinically oriented physicians viewed the program positively. It appeared to help junior faculty get promoted and led to improved work satisfaction and reduced burnout.
鉴于针对临床教员的正式指导计划的影响尚不清楚，研究结构化指导委员会计划对学术晋升和参与者认知的影响。
这项前瞻性队列研究于2019年12月17日至2022年12月31日在中西部一家退伍军人事务三级医疗系统开展，纳入了医学服务部门中低于临床副教授级别的临床系列教员。指导会议（学员、委员会主席和导师）通常每年举行两次。每次会议后对所有参与者进行调查（回复率：100%）。
23名符合条件的教员全部（100%）登记成为学员，共举行了49次不同的会议。3名（13%）学员获得晋升，其余20名（87%）继续参与该计划。导师和学员在“时间利用效率”方面的平均得分（标准差），评分范围为1（强烈不同意）至5（强烈同意），分别为4.71（0.51）和4.80（0.54）；在“自上次会议以来取得的适当进展”方面为4.58（0.64）和4.37（0.49）；在“该计划提高了我的工作满意度”方面为4.52（0.66）和4.31（0.64）；在“该计划减轻了我的工作倦怠”方面为4.07（0.96）和3.75（0.92）。
以临床为导向的医生对该计划评价积极。该计划似乎有助于初级教员获得晋升，并提高了工作满意度，减轻了倦怠。
