The Faculty Development Institute (FDI) evaluates the needs of the PAEA membership on an annual basis.  Data collected from workshop evaluations, faculty and staff needs assessments, membership feedback and Board recommendations assist FDI in determining workshop topics. FDI strives to offer workshops that meet the needs of a variety of members, from the most junior to the more experienced faculty member. 

Workshop Categories

Recurring Workshops
These popular workshops are offered on an annual and/or semi-annual basis and focus on the key areas of scholarship, clinical education, leadership and foundational skills (e.g. Basic Skills Faculty Development Workshop and Clinical Coordinators Workshop). These are scheduled to coincide with the PAEA Annual Education Forum as an “add-on” workshop, but may also be offered at other times during the year in various regional locations.

Invited Workshops
FDI may develop new or reinstate previously presented workshops based on the needs of the membership.  In addition, FDI may periodically solicit workshop proposals from the membership on an as-needed basis and as time, space and budget permit.

Please look under the Future Workshops for upcoming FDI offerings.
