Medical education facilitator (pbl/icm tutor)

Medical Education Facilitator (PBL/ICM Tutor)

One of the best Universities for health education, Worcester has founded the distinctive Three Counties Medical School [TCMS], aiming to widen access to careers in medicine and retain graduates in the local area. The School’s curriculum emphasises problem-based learning [PBL], early patient contact, programmatic assessment, and an emphasis on community-orientated clinical placements at every stage.

We now wish to appoint a Medical Education Facilitator (MEFs) to support the on-going delivery of the curriculum across years 1 and 2 (Phase 1).

You are invited to apply for a part-time post (between 0.4-0.8FTE) that will deliver either PBL and/or Integrated Clinical Method (ICM) contributing to the programme across the week. As a PBL Facilitator you will meet with groups of students on Monday and Fridays, as an ICM Tutor on Tuesdays and/or Thursday over 35 weeks. The remaining time will be devoted to preparation, curriculum development, career development and the assessment of students. Acting as Personal Academic Tutors you will meet at least 4 times a year with individual students and be responsible for updating student records and liaising with student support services

If you are interested in joining us at this exciting time and would relish the challenge of playing a part in the future development of the Three Counties Medical School as we train the next generation of doctors, we welcome your application.
