“…In light of recent developments in medical education, several medical schools in Turkey have accepted a certificate in training skills as a criterion for academic promotion (13). Some studies (15,17) of faculty training programs (conducted in Turkey) have evaluated the opinions of participants about the efficiency of the training program. Other studies (16,21) aimed to elucidate the educational impact of the newly acquired knowledge and skills upon individual and occupational performances in the professional life of the participants.…”

Self-assessment tools have previously been used to assess the impact of a faculty development program on the teaching skills of medical educators. In this study, we aimed to assess the impact of a faculty development program on the teaching performances of faculty members in relation to their medical disciplines and academic positions. A faculty-training program consisted of "training skills" and "student assessment instruments" courses. The impact of the program was evaluated by self-reporting of faculty members (a total of 225 reports) 1-2 yr after the program. Both courses were found to be beneficial by nearly all of the attendants. Clinicians benefited more from some topics in the student assessment course and could apply the structured learning and assessment guides, structured oral examination, and objective structured clinical examination more efficiently than their peers from preclinical departments. In conclusion, the results demonstrated that the participants of the faculty development program modified their teaching activities according to the demands of their clinical practice. The correlations between the benefits and behavioral changes were statistically significant.

“…Investigations suggest that teachers and academics are not sufficiently sensitive to the growth of their pedagogical backgrounds, particularly in educational faculties, and in universities. These studies [14,[22][23][24][25] address these problems; that faculty members do not give enough importance to this issue, they believe that their education abilities are immediately linked to the growth of their understanding of material and content knowledge; they live an isolated life style, over-specialization in a particular subject prevents academics from improving themselves in education, and that research on educational development is limited and national education and health policies have a negative impact. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the educator skills of university educators in our country by using qualitative research method in a wide scope.…”

However, an important problem observed in these programs, especially those related to medical education is that the trainers don't have pedagogical background.…”

Based on the philosophy of lifelong education, private/public institutions and organizations invest in continuous training of human resources. Universities also organize in-service trainings regarding the general principles of teaching and learning in the context lifelong learning activities for the development of the pedagogical skills of the academicians who have difficulty in using teaching skills and principles in the courses in their universities. Therefore, a Project entitled as Training of Trainers based on action research based on qualitative research design was carried out for aiming at providing pedagogical education for the academicians who work in different departments of Ondokuz Mayis University who are experts in different disciplines but who do not have pedagogical background in order to gain experience in basic skills and principles in education area so as to improve the quality of education in this way. During the project, which lasted for a total of 2 years, 246 academicians were trained in 24 different subjects, the opinions of the participants were taken and the distribution of these views was reflected in the tables in text. Finally, the asymptotic Significance (2-sided) for Pearson Chi-Square indicates of the yes/no answer indicates that there is a dramatic change regarding the effectiveness of the program. It is seen that it meets the needs of academicians. Therefore, the program based on action research design shows that such in-service pedagogical programs could be useful for higher education in this respect.
