New Faculty Development Lead

It is a pleasure to welcome Dr. Jacqueline Hui as Lead, Faculty Development, taking over from Dr. Keith Wycliffe-Jones. 

Dr. Hui practices palliative care in Calgary and in 2014 completed a Master of Health Professions Education (MHPE) at Maastricht University, Netherlands, with an interest in the Four-Component Instructional Design (4C/ID) model and curriculum development. She has a strong background in education, previously holding roles as Program Director for Palliative Care and as Assessment Director of the family medicine residency program. Dr. Hui was recently the Physician Complex System Navigator for the Outcomes of Training Project which prepared a Curriculum Renewal Plan and Change Readiness Assessment for the family medicine residency program.

In addition to her role as DFM Faculty Development Lead, Dr. Hui will be the Director of Teacher Development with the Office of Faculty Development and Performance at the Cumming School of Medicine. She is excited to create a local and sustainable community of practice for teachers and to promote more inclusivity and equity in health professions education.
