1. Introduction Aimed at educators from wide-ranging backgrounds and with varying levels of experience, the Teaching and Assessment for Medical Educators (TAME) program will enhance the quality of faculty professional development within clinical education. It will help those with teaching responsibilities to become more proficient in tailoring their teaching according to learner needs and diverse educational settings; in developing clinical reasoning skills; in involving patients in the learning process; in designing appropriate assessments; in delivering and receiving feedback; and in addressing potential challenges. Ultimately, this program will help educators ensure that the clinicians of tomorrow are fit to practice.

2. What is Teaching and Assessment for Medical Educators? Two online courses focussing on clinical teaching and research skills and clinical assessment, evaluation and feedback. Developed for doctors, non-doctor clinicians and academics who teach medical students at varying levels. Available also in the UK with different content. This program encourages participants to review their profession-specific standards and domains Easy-to-follow online learning course, with additional offline study. Interactive videos, surveys and audio learning and interviews and insight from medical professionals. Example from Course 1, Chapter 1: ‘Clinical teaching: An overview - Participants in learning and teaching.’

3. Clinical teaching and learning CoursesActivitiesOutline Clinical teaching and learning Core: 2 hours, 30 minutes Additional: At least 16 hours Clinical teaching and learning looks at how medical educators should involve patients in the teaching process in order to enhance learning and inspire students. Participants will understand the value of patients in the learning process, how to prepare students and patients for the encounter, and how best to facilitate learning, team teaching and record-keeping. Syllabus:  Clinical teaching: An overview  Preparing for learners and learning  Clinical teaching approaches  Accommodating different needs and dealing with challenging situations

4. Clinical assessment, feedback and evaluation CoursesActivitiesOutline Clinical assessment, evaluation and feedback Core: 2 hours Additional: At least 13 hours Clinical assessment, feedback and evaluation is designed to empower medical teaching staff to feel confident in designing, observing and evaluating accurate and effective written and practice-based assessments. They will be able to give constructive feedback and understand its importance in teaching and learning. Syllabus:  Introduction to clinical assessment  Types of clinical assessment  Approaching clinical feedback

5. What does it look like? Interactive activities, models and scenarios. Interviews with professionals and students on some of the key components of clinical teaching and learning. Case studies and practical scenarios exploring real-life examples. Practice scenario at the end of the course to help participants to apply new knowledge and skills to a realistic, clinical situation. Interactive activities to help illustrate models such as the one-minute preceptor and SNAPPS models. Interactive polls with real-time results for course-takers to assess their answers against others. An example from Course 1 - Developing clinical reasoning 2: The SNAPPS model

6. ‘Without a doubt, TAME is the premier online faculty development program for clinical teachers.’ The courses can be studied independently or can be used in a blended approach appropriate to other forms of professional development offered in your institution. Each course is extensively referenced with the work of leading clinicians and educators. Embedded interactive activities, video, and audio clips highlight key points, provide strategies, prompt reflection, and help to consolidate your knowledge.
