Medical Science Educator Portfolio Kit
The Committee for the Advancement of Medical Science Educators (CAMSE), a subcommittee of the IAMSE (International Association of Medical Science Educators) Professional Development Committee, recently completed their work on the Medical Science Educator Portfolio Toolkit.
The portfolio toolkit contains worksheets and examples presented by the CAMSE designed to help educators evaluate and present their activities across these five educator domains:
- Teaching
- Learner assessment
- Curriculum development
- Advising and mentoring
- Educational leadership and administration
These worksheets are used to highlight a few of the educator’s most significant contributions, as this portfolio is intended to supplement a curriculum vitae as part of a promotion package. Access the worksheets and examples by downloading the PDFs below.
