May 29, 2017 Faculty Development Activities
ICE advocates faculty development to ensure consistency of students’ learning experience based on the university’s learning model and to meet the changing needs of health care services.
Over 70 faculty development programmes (FDP) are conducted annually, ranging from workshops, webinars, plenaries, expert clinic sessions, forums and HPE journal club facilitated by both IMU experts and visiting professors mainly from IMU’s partner schools covering a wide range of topics. Visiting Professorship Programmes enables world leaders in health professions education to share their expertise and apply it in the regional context.
