Twelve tips for developing,implementing, and sustaining medical education fellowship programs: Building on new trends and solid foundations

Medical education fellowship programs (MEFPs) are a form of faculty development contributing to an organization’s educational mission and participants’ career development. Building an MEFP requires a systematic design, implementation, and evaluation approach which aligns institutional and individual faculty goals. Implementing an MEFP requires a team of committed individuals who provide expertise, guidance, and mentoring. Qualified MEFP directors should utilize instructional methods that promote individual and institutional short and long term growth. Directors must balance the use of traditional design, implementation, and evaluation methodologies with advancing trends that may support or threaten the acceptability and sustainability of the program.
