摘要:Problem: There is a growing call to add leader and leadership education to undergraduate medical education (UME). Yet, there currently are no established standards, competencies, curricula, or requirements for UME leader and leadership education and development (LEAD) programs. The Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USU) F. Edward Hébert School of Medicine LEAD program hosts annual Summit and Working Group meetings to address issues and to share experiences about LEAD programs.Approach: Based on survey results following the 2017 USU LEAD Summit, working group participants reported that the meeting was valuable, should be repeated, and should address the specific topics of curriculum and assessment. Therefore, the 2018 Summit’s goal was for participants to share experiences, ideas, and ways forward regarding leader and leadership curricula and assessment measures for UME. Themes from working groups were compiled and reported.Outcomes: Themes within LEAD curriculum include: (1) what to teach: relevant knowledge, skills, and abilities/attitudes (KSA) for specific topics; (2) when to teach: a life-cycle program woven through UME into graduate medical education and beyond; and (3) how to teach: near peers, development of mentors, and near-term, practical applications of skills. Themes within LEAD assessment include: (1) what to assess: alignment with program goals and curriculum within a positive culture of assessment and trust; (2) when to assess: occur at times that are consistent with the learning objectives and curriculum to provide information on incremental “growth” of students and the program; (3) how to assess: use formative and summative, qualitative and quantitative measures that are reliable and valid.Next steps: Based on feedback from working group participants at the 2018 Summit, the USU LEAD team will host a third Summit in April 2019 focusing on leader and leadership education and development across the healthcare work force life cycle.
