Abstract
OBJECTIVES: This project qualitatively assessed the critical components and global impacts for one cohortfrom the part-time faculty development fellowship at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. METHODS: Sixteen individual qualitative in-person interviews were conducted on one complete cohort of faculty development fellows. RESULTS: The data aggregates into four areas of influence. The first two are the critical components of the fellowship: the conditions and the curriculum. The other two are the impacts of the fellowship: the fellows' clarity of career vision and confidence. CONCLUSIONS: Graduates reported that their fellowship vitalized them to pursue their ideal position in academic family medicine.
