Abstract/Notes Excerpt: Over the course of the past 20 years, there has been growing acknowledgement that there is a significant need to provide faculty development which enhances the teaching skills and scholarship of the healthcare education community. This is certainly equally true within the chiropractic profession specifically but far less research exists which is addressed to the needs of the chiropractic academic community. As noted by Rosenbaum et al1, a number of challenges exist in providing opportunities for faculty to obtain training in teaching skills. These include the need for there to be someone with faculty development expertise to lead such a program, lack of locally-based advanced educational training programs, interest solely coming from highly motivated educators and lack of departmental members who can assist or take on such training opportunities. They conclude that institutions need to seek ways to expand resources available for training. They recommend increasing the number of faculty with advanced expertise in education, and to use peers to offer training once they have gained that expertise (as noted below). At several chiropractic colleges, there are also challenges arising from the nature of their collective bargaining agreements, each of which has specifications for faculty performance that may at times be at odds with the need to implement faculty development programs.
