Medical Education Specialist Development and Evaluation Committee
(医学教育専門家認定制度委員会)
Chair : Akiteru Takamura MD, MEd, PhD (University of Toyama)
In 2014, the Japan Society for Medical Education established the Certified Medical Education Specialist system, marking its 10th anniversary.
This program has produced numerous specialists who are active in medical education institutions, primarily at universities and training hospitals.
The committee focuses on implementing coursework for the development of certified medical education specialists, conducting portfolio evaluations, managing the system, and providing lifelong education for graduates.
We aim to cultivate healthcare educators who are internationally recognized, with the goal of having at least one specialist in every medical education institution across the country.
