Abstract:
Background: A workshop for training clinical clerkship staff has been held since 2009. We examined how the participants felt about the workshop.
Method: The questionnaire was sent to the participants of the workshop.
Result: Of the participants, 82% thought that the workshop was helpful and that the benefits had continued for more than 2 years. Their motivation for undergraduate medical education was improved. They started to consider how medical students become members of a medical team and to think about the goals of medical practice. To promote further increases in the numbers of clinical clerkships, the participants cited the necessity of increasing the number of faculty advisors, encouraging medical students’ positive attitudes, changing attitudes about patients, extending the training period, and holding such workshops.
Conclusion: The workshop was beneficial for the staff, and the beneficial effects continued long after the workshop was held.
