The Medical Education Faculty is delighted to announce that it is advertising several Teaching Fellow roles across the Trust that will work two or three days supporting the delivery of medical education, predominantly medical student teaching, with the other time in a clinical setting. They will support medical students from HYMS, Leeds, Newcastle and Sunderland Medical Schools and can either be at FY3 or SAS level. The post is popular with both post FY2 or post CT doctors who would like to further develop skills in teaching, simulation and curriculum delivery.
Main duties of the job
The medical education component of the role will involve the delivery, support and assessment of medical students from the medical schools that we partner. There will also be other opportunities to support the Faculty of Medical Education on key projects that we will align to other areas of special interest in medical education to include completing a poster presentation on an educational topic at a regional or national conference in the year of employment. You will also have regular Medical Education Supervision support sessions and opportunity for development and feedback on your teaching skills.
The clinical component of the role is not yet fixed, and it is our intention to match the successful candidates to a work area where the service would benefit from additional medical support.
