Learners as Teachers: Development of a Novel Faculty Development Curriculum Utilizing Junior Faculty as Primary Authors

Using junior faculty as primary authors to create a specialty and institutional specific faculty development curriculum is an effective approach to create and deliver a curriculum. This method is cost-effective, well-received and sustainable as it builds on and strengthens pre-existing resources and relationships. This method also succeeded in creating a community of practice dedicated to sharing knowledge and skills around medical education. Given its generalizable framework, this model of curriculum development could likely be deployed in any graduate medical program regardless of specialty.
