Download or read book The Residency Coordinator s Handbook written by Dianna Otterstad and published by HC Pro, Inc.. This book was released on 2007 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Residency coordinators juggle a multitude of tasks-supporting residents through a complex educational process, ensuring the program director has the tools and resources he or she needs, and monitoring the program's compliance with ACGME standards. The list goes on and on. Unfortunately, new coordinators are not often given the resources they need to effectively perform these tasks. They are left on their own to navigate complicated standards, overcome scheduling challenges, and master documentation requirements. Failure to quickly learn and carry out these duties puts the program's accreditation at risk. And because standards and expectations are constantly changing, even the most experienced coordinators often find themselves searching for practical, easy-to-understand resources to guide them through day-to-day activities.

Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.

It is for teachers who refuse to harden their hearts, because they love learners, learning, and the teaching life." - Parker J. Palmer [from the Introduction] Teachers choose their vocation for reasons of the heart, because they care deeply about their students and about their subject. But the demands of teaching cause too many educators to lose heart. Is it possible to take heart in teaching once more so that we can continue to do what good teachers always do -- give heart to our students? In The Courage to Teach, Parker Palmer takes teachers on an inner journey toward reconnecting with their vocation and their students -- and recovering their passion for one of the most difficult and important of human endeavors.
