Title
A Pan-Canadian Evaluation of the College of Family Medicine Canada's Fundamental Teaching Activities Framework
Length of Presentation
Background/Purpose
The primary purpose was to conduct an evaluation of the CFPC's Fundamental Teaching Activities (FTA) in Family Medicine Framework.
Methods
Using a practical participatory evaluation approach a partnership between the project team and members of the CFPC Faculty Development Education Committee (FDEC) solidified the evaluation design, development of data tools, implementation strategies, validated key findings, and dissemination. Faculty Development programs across Canada were targeted for this evaluation, particularly Faculty Development Directors, Postgraduate Directors, and Site Directors were invited to participate. Mixed methods consisting of an online survey sent by FDEC to all Family Medicine Faculty Development Directors, Postgraduate Directors, and Site Directors and follow-up interviews with self-selected participants conducted by the research team.
Results
The surveys were distributed to the 15 Faculty Development Directors, the 18 Family Medicine Program Directors and 174 Family Medicine Site Directors in the Fall of 2018, soliciting response rates of 80%, 66.7%, and 19.5% respectively. Interviews were conducted with a representative sample of 12 survey participants in Winter and Spring of 2019. Surveys and interviews were conducted in either French or English. Survey and interview responses suggest that awareness of the FTA was highest among Faculty Development Directors. There have been varied levels of implementation of the FTA framework across the country.
Conclusion
Recommendations to reduce barriers to implementation, such as readability and clarity of the FTA framework and highlighting the collective and individual values of the framework will be presented.
