ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Residency scholarly tracks have allowed training programs to better prepare residents for a future in academia. Despite their success, however, few evaluations of these scholarly tracks have been completed to ensure they are meeting the goals of their stakeholders.OBJECTIVE:
The objective was to evaluate the education scholarly track at Northwestern University Emergency Medicine by querying key stakeholders on the current state of the track and its ideal state.METHODS:
Current emergency medicine residents, faculty, and track alumni were identified as essential stakeholders. Their perspectives on the track were elicited with a focus group and online survey, respectively, and responses were analyzed using grounded theory.RESULTS:
Four distinct themes emerged from the analysis as critical to the track "education skills and learning theory," "education research methodology," "leadership," and "collaboration."CONCLUSION:
These themes will be used to inform further development of the track. A similar self-reflection process may benefit other programs with scholarly tracks.
