Assessing faculty development needs and perceptions for residency programs at a medical school in Rwanda
Strengthening faculty development in clinical academic settings has the potential to improve the overall academic environment across health sciences universities and their teaching sites. Health sciences universities should consider ways to recognize, develop, and support both their clinical and non-clinical staff engaged in academic activities. This can be done through institutional support systems, improved academic recognition frameworks, and the promotion of innovative teaching and learning methods.
