Tri-Divisional Faculty Development Day “Stronger Together: Advancing Practice, Knowledge, and Community in Emergency Medicine”
The inaugural Tri-Divisional Faculty Development Day is a collaborative continuing professional development (CPD) event bringing together faculty from the Departments of Family & Community Medicine, Medicine, and Pediatrics. Representing emergency departments across the Greater Toronto Area, this event is designed to strengthen connections, foster collaboration, and advance both clinical and educational practices within the emergency medicine (EM) community.
The morning will include an interactive ice-breaker, a keynote presentation, and a moderated panel discussion exploring the evolution of emergency medicine and what it means to build a meaningful, sustainable career beyond the shift. Participants will be able to submit questions in advance and engage with panelists during the session.
In the afternoon, faculty will take part in two of four targeted breakout workshops, each focused on a key area of professional development:
1. Education and Teaching Practice
2. Wellness and Keeping the Spark Alive
3. Scholarly and Academic Practice
4. Coaching and Leadership Practice
These sessions will be interactive, practical, and peer-driven, offering tools, shared experiences, and strategies tailored to diverse interests and career stages.
The goal of this CPD activity is to support professional growth, foster community, and help faculty find renewed purpose and connection in their work across academic and clinical emergency medicine.

Each webinar features a thought-provoking presentation from an invited speaker, inviting dialogue around what’s new in program evaluation, artificial intelligence, accreditation best practices, and health equity research.
