Frequently allied health faculty are unprepared to assume the role of professional academician. Instituting a professional development program can assist faculty in enhancing their effectiveness in that role. As the first step, a faculty group in the School of Health Related Professions, State University of New York at Buffalo, designed a questionnaire to obtain information on faculty members' judgments about their own skills in various activities--teaching, research, writing, service, and administration--and the importance of these activities. The goal of this survey was to identify those activities for which there was the greatest need for faculty development. Research and writing were identified as areas having the greatest overall potential for professional development. The survey also provided groundwork for implementing an on-going professional development program that could be systematically evaluated.
通常，专职医疗人员没有准备好承担专业学者的角色。开展专业发展项目可以帮助教师提高他们在这一角色中的效能。第一步，纽约州立大学布法罗分校健康相关专业学院的一个教师小组设计了一份问卷，以获取教师对自己在各种活动（教学、研究、写作、服务和管理）中的技能以及这些活动的重要性的判断信息。这项调查的目的是确定那些最需要教师发展的活动。研究和写作被确定为专业发展总体潜力最大的领域。该调查还为实施一个可以进行系统评估的持续专业发展项目奠定了基础。
