This evaluation strategy showed that the faculty development program improved the teaching competencies of the participants. Both the program participants' retrospective self-assessments and the independent ratings by their trainees showed postprogram improvements and were positively intercorrelated. The use of these multiple measures is a viable approach to evaluate the impact of a faculty development program. Potentially either approach could be used, but in combination, they provide a feasible, valid, and reliable evaluation.
