ABSTRACT
Certification in Medical Education; Strategy for Educational
Formation. Origins and Follow-Up.
This study is a review of the problem of educational
formation in terms of an international context, and
determinant factors of this need are analyzed, barriers or
limitations that have prevented such a formation are highlighted,
and some development proposals for educational
training are offered.
It is also a description of the actions that the Facultad de
Medicina (Medical School) of the Universidad Nacional
Autónoma de México (National Autonomous University of
Mexico) implemented from 1965 to 1996 to promote
educational training. In 1997, the Diplomado en Enseñanza
de la Medicina began as a new possibility for educational
training. The first certification course ran in 1997, and
there have been 18 courses to date, eight the Medical
School and 10 at external institutions.
In 1999, a follow-up questionnaire was answered by physicians
trained under the certification program. Results showed that
training received in the certification course had a positive effect
on teaching skills of physicians who attended it, thus establishing
the program as a good option for medical teachers.
