Medical schools’ regional campuses respond to vital needs in medical education. About one third of US medical schools have regional campuses. It is important to create and maintain, in all geographically separate locations, climate and culture conducive to effective teaching and learning. An evidence-based approach to designing and implementing faculty development programs for regional medical campuses is described, and the BASK assessment framework is introduced, recognizing the interconnectedness between desired changes in behaviors, and learners’ attitudes, skills and knowledge. IRB approval was obtained for the completion of this study.
