Abstract
The goal of this quality improvement project was to improve internal medicine trainees' satisfaction with their formal teaching program. Initially, qualitative and quantitative data were collected from trainees, which demonstrated an overall negative attitude towards their teaching. Based on the feedback collected, changes were made to the teaching program, including switching to face-to-face teaching, using study leave in trainees' rosters to allow for higher attendance rates and planning subject-specific "teaching afternoons". After these interventions, trainees' satisfaction with their teaching improved substantially in areas of teaching quality, relevance and reliability. This quality improvement project demonstrates that low-cost interventions based on trainee feedback can improve satisfaction with teaching, which has the potential to alleviate workforce challenges in the UK healthcare system.
