Faculty members are the greatest resource in the education of future health care professionals. Their vitality and development are key to effective educational and health care outcomes. Research in the domain of Faculty Development and CPD explores how faculty members engage in life-long learning and studies the factors that influence their participation. Research in this domain also examines the effectiveness of different interventions (both formal and informal) that address faculty members’ career development and their roles as teachers and educators, researchers and scholars, leaders and administrators, and clinicians. In addition, this research explores how learning in formal settings transfers to the workplace and how faculty members can become agents of change within their work environments, prepared to meet challenges of health care and HSE. Scholarship in this domain serves to advance the theoretical understanding of faculty development and CPD, the link between professional development and organizational change and renewal, and the design and delivery of diverse approaches to capacity-building.
