Coaching, which has a wealth of supportive evidence from outside of medicine, is distinguished by (1) being driven by the agentic coachee that is inherently capable, creative, and resourceful, (2) not requiring the coach and coachee to have shared content expertise, and (3) not being centered around transfer of expertise from the more knowledgeable or experienced party to the recipient. Initial evidence from within medicine indicates that coaching reduces burnout and improves learner self-reflection, teaching effectiveness, goal setting, reflective capacity, professional identity formation, career planning, and development of adaptive expertise. In this article, faculty coaching is presented as a powerful means to help clinician educators overcome the myriad challenges to professional advancement and career fulfillment.

Spreading out study and practice separated by cognitive breaks (distributed practice), testing oneself to check mastery and memory of previously learned information (retrieval practice), mixing the learning of separate but associated information (interleaving), and making connections between concepts one is trying to learn and other known concepts (elaboration) represent strategies that are underused in CPD. Participants and planners alike can benefit from learning science recommendations to inform their decisions.
