Abstract
Medical students will become educators teaching peers, healthcare students, patients, and families. At Rutgers New Jersey Medical School, the "Teaching Assistants in Medical Education" program provides fourth-year medical students with the skills and experiences needed to prepare them as medical educators. The program goes beyond the near peer teaching model to support student development in curricular design, assessment, and communication skills through a Clinical Skills or Anatomy track. Investment in the development of medical students as future educators will yield immediate and long-term rewards.
