Thank you for teaching in the MD Program! Without the dedication and effort of teachers like you, we would not be able to deliver our curriculum and prepare the next generation of physicians. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge and create safe and effective learning environments for our students.
This website is organized into three "buckets" of support. The Onboarding webpage is your one stop for setting yourself up at the U of A and familiarizing yourself with the MD Program. The Teaching Quality page provides information on the benefits of working with our Teaching Quality Coordinators to develop your teaching style and classroom dynamic, as well as templates and resources for teaching. Thirdly, the Teacher Support tab provides additional supports, including information on student feedback, faculty development modules, a newsletter archive, and more.
