In 1975 the Department of Family and Community Medicine, University of Toronto, initiated a system of internal review of its undergraduate and postgraduate programs. During the next six months each of the major teaching resources for the family practice component of the programs was visited by an inspection team. A detailed report with recommendations was prepared and received wide distribution. After this initial review, the internal medicine and pediatric components of the curriculum were evaluated. Again reports and recommendations were made. At the present time the surgical and psychiatric components of the program are being evaluated. This ongoing internal review has had several benefits including specific changes in programs, better organization, and a better understanding of the department and its goals. Some of the difficulties are the time and organization necessary for a valid and appropriate review.
1975年,多伦多大学家庭与社区医学系启动了对其本科和研究生项目的内部评审系统。在接下来的六个月里,项目家庭医疗部分的每个主要教学资源都接受了一个检查小组的考察。一份附有建议的详细报告被撰写出来并广泛分发。在这次初步评审之后,课程中的内科和儿科部分也得到了评估。同样也提出了报告和建议。目前,该项目的外科和精神科部分正在接受评估。这种持续的内部评审带来了诸多益处,包括项目的具体改变、更好的组织架构以及对该系及其目标的更深入理解。一些困难在于进行有效且恰当的评审所需的时间和组织工作。
