We herein describe the conceptual dimension of the curricular innovation process carried out in the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Chile. We describe the context of innovation. The theoretical pertinence and relevance of a competence driven curriculum for health care professionals is discussed. The epistemological, ontological and didactic dimensions of the curricular innovation are examined. A main issue is the notion of competence and its significance in professional training. The curriculum is essentially considered as a moral endeavor, especially for health care professionals and their quest to improve the quality of life of the population.

Background: Subspecialty fellows are a unique group of trainees for whom there currently exist few opportunities to pursue formal training as clinician-educators, as singular fellowship programs often face significant obstacles to implementing such coursework.
Objective: To develop, implement, and assess a clinician-educator course for fellows from multiple subspecialty fellowships at a single large academic medical center.
Methods: Our course, entitled Fellow as Clinician-Educator, was initiated across numerous fellowship programs from August 2021 to April 2023 at University of California San Diego Health.

Context: With the advent of the Single Accreditation System (SAS) within the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), few programs have achieved Osteopathic Recognition (OR) status to date. OR is an accreditation that graduate medical education (GME) programs can achieve to distinctly acknowledge the additional focus on osteopathic training. There is an effort by national osteopathic organizations to determine barriers for programs to achieve OR and what innovative methods might help overcome them.

Aim: To explore the elements of nursing identity recognized by nursing students in models developed through the 'Design process' methodology.
Background: The construction of nursing professional identity is a complex process involving identification, group belonging, partial assessments and social representations. Nursing identity is one of the most stereotyped and its formation during the nursing degree has a significant impact on professional development.
Purpose: Although there is a robust literature on the benefits and outcomes of active learning in medical education, little is known about the faculty experience of transitioning from lecture-based teaching to active learning in the preclinical, foundational science curriculum. The authors explored how faculty describe changing from lecture to active learning and how that change relates to the loci of control and basic psychological needs of faculty.
Method: Using a phenomenographic approach, the authors interviewed faculty at 3 medical schools who taught before, during, and after required shifts to active learning.
