Future of postgraduate med education

This project is a consortium of different colleges of education
They created 10 recommendations and transformative actions

I liked the 7th recommendation: "develop,support and recognize clinical teachers"

Interesting-such a big document, but the microphones were open for any inputs or comments. Good how things are built here.

How to implement this? A speaker commented on the need of sharing resources to focus on specific topic depending on what one group pr hierarchic level may work on- altogether the objectives will be achieved.
The hidden curriculum of teachers was touched- after students evaluation and their feedback,negative results may affect future promotion -hoe the university support that? Also what about the time to teach not considered as relevant as the clinical?

What about specialties residents-how to distribute them and use them? Has to do with radiology residents.

Nice reflection and work on med education and social repercussion of that.
