MISSION:
The APA Faculty Development Special Interest Group (FacDevSIG) exists to provide a professional home for pediatric medical educators interested in faculty development.
Our focus is on the members' roles as faculty developers, not merely the members' own personal faculty development.

Six-Domains of Faculty Development.
The career development needs of most academic pediatric faculty members fall into six domains. For each domain, we have provided a set of common faculty development goals. We recommend that APA members review and adapt the goal sets to create their own plans for personal career development.
- Education
- Research
- Advocacy and Health Policy
- Communications/Technology
- Leadership/Administration
- Career Development
