Faculty and Trainer Development Pathway

Clinical Training SkillsOnce proficient, the healthcare provider who wants to become a clinical trainer must successfully complete a knowledge update, skills standardization and a clinical training skills (CTS) course. They may be conducted as three separate activities or combined in various ways. The CTS course focuses on learning the skills necessary to effectively transfer clinical knowledge and expertise to others. During this course, the healthcare provider will learn coaching, humanistic training techniques and how to use competency-based skill assessments to evaluate participant performance. The healthcare provider will also learn how to present information more effectively through the use of illustrated lectures, demonstrations, role plays, case studies, group discussions, audiovisuals and other training aids. At the end of the CTS course, the healthcare provider is designated as a "candidate clinical trainer" if s/he has fulfilled the course objectives.
