Faculty Development and Leadership

Faculty vitality is essential for the sustained health of our medical colleges and teaching hospitals.

The AAMC supports faculty vitality through:

• Professional development programs targeted to faculty from early career through senior leadership
• Print and online materials to inform and educate
• Analyses of trends and models of practice for faculty retention, advancement and contributions
• Activities that highlight faculty diversity and gender balance

These activities build capacity for both individual and organizational vitality through a framework of comprehensive professional development that addresses responsibilities of academic service, capability to adapt to challenges, and building communities of learning and practice.
