Medical Education

Indian Medical Education system is expanding rapidly with more than 450 Medical Schools till October 2018; hence more than 70,000 teachers will be required as per MCI regulation. There is no provision for training of teachers prior to their recruitment. To achieve higher principles of Medical education there is need to recruit trained man power. Considering this fact, at Global as well as at National level, initiatives have been taken towards training the trainers. At per MCI regulations Medical education units were established in all Medical Schools with mandate of training of trainers, but it has been noticed that they are not functioning as per the set out objectives. Therefore, this work has been undertaken to study the functionality of MEUs.
