Identificación de las necesidades de capacitación docente de los jefes de programa de especialización médica / Identifying the main training needs of postgraduate medical program managers
A mixed-methodology approach was implemented including focus group/interviews and the administration of the Program Managers TrainingNeeds AssessmentQuestionnaire (PROMANAQ) developed by an expert panel with 59 items (with two sections relevance/performance-self-perception). Higher priority was assigned to items with high relevance and low performance.
Results:
Forty five PMSPM completed the PROMANAQ (81.8% response rate). Both sections of PROMANAQ were highly reliable (Cronbach alpha of 0.95/0.97 for relevance/performance-self-perception, respectively). The items with higher priority value were evaluation of clinical educators, evaluation of teaching programs and accreditation of programs. Ten PMSPM were included in the focus group (18.2% of the universe). The findings of the qualitative component were concordant with the areas explored in the questionnaire.
