Abstract

Evaluation of the effectiveness of any faculty development program (FDP) is crucial to provide assessment of existing programs and to yield valid recommendations for designing future programs that better address the needs of individual faculty members and the sponsoring institutions. The author chose the validated Kirkpatrick's model with four levels of program outcomes (satisfaction data, learning data, performing data, and career change) to evaluate the effectiveness of an FDP in emergency medicine. Assessment of the effectiveness of this FDP can be performed by sponsoring organizations or by independent evaluators experienced in the field for better objectivity.

International emergency medicine: a review of the literature.

The field of international emergency medicine has grown rapidly over the past several decades, with an increase in the number of interested individuals and in the range of topics included under its rubric. One of the greatest obstacles, however, faced by international emergency medicine researchers and practitioners alike remains the lack of a high-quality, consolidated, and easily accessible evidence base of literature. In response to this perceived need, members of the Emergency Medicine Residents' Association International Emergency Medicine Committee, in conjunction with members of the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine International Interest Group, embarked on the task of creating a recurring review of international emergency medicine literature. Articles for this first annual review, covering research published in 2005, were selected according to explicit, predetermined criteria that included both methodological quality and perceived impact of the research. It is our hope that this annual review will act as a forum for disseminating best practices, while also stimulating further research in the field of international emergency medicine.
