Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research project explored how dedicated medical education/training department staff perform their jobs and how they transform their educational professional identities. We were also able to explore what factors and criteria can be used to model successful education/training departments and dedicated staff. In addition to the analysis of written materials, semi-structured interviews were conducted with the staff of the medical education department as the primary target population, and staff perceptions were analyzed using thematic analysis methods. The factors and criteria obtained from the data thus far were extracted, and ultimately a prototype model for the future of the education/training sector was identified.
