Valerie Dandar, Director of Medical School Operations at the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) Department of Academic Affairs, joins the Faculty Factory Podcast this week to discuss the StandPoint™ Faculty Engagement Survey and some of its important findings.
The StandPoint™ Faculty Engagement Survey (formerly called Faculty Forward) is a research-validated survey specifically aimed at the academic medicine community.
You can learn more about StandPoint™ here: https://www.aamc.org/services/member-capacity-building/standpoint-surveys/faculty-engagement-survey
As Valerie notes in this interview, the survey is voluntary and inclusive of academic medicine staff members, in addition to faculty.
According to Valerie, "We have seen in our research statistically significant jumps in areas where schools put action plans and resources in place. Faculty and staff perceptions have gotten better over time and retention has improved which is really the point of doing this work."
The survey findings are also known for very high response rates, in the range of 60% to 80%, according to Valerie.
