2008年,中国根据国际标准与指南建立了临床医学专业认证制度.截至2013年,中国已经认证20所院校,并计划至2020年认证所有137所医学院校.为了实现这一目标,中国的医学教育工作者与澳大利亚同行开展了合作.中国和澳大利亚同为世界医学教育联合会的区域性机构西太平洋地区医学教育协会的成员,双方的合作始于2000年区域性会议上的非正式讨论,之后主要开展了3个方面的合作:在中国为潜在的认证专家和准备接受认证的院校举办培训会;中国的认证专家赴澳大利亚访问,考察澳大利亚医学理事会开展的认证活动;澳大利亚专家参与中国医学院校的认证(本文中所用的“医学院校认证”等同于中国“本科临床医学专业认证”.本文中方作者注).本文论述了在国际医学教育认证的大背景下,双方逐步开展合作,形成今天独特的双边合作模式.同时,本文对具有中国特色的标准和指南的制定、试点实施进行了说明.最后,讨论了迄今为止所取得的成果和面临的挑战.“,”In 2008,China established a medical school accreditation process based on international standards and guidelines.Twenty schools had been accredited by 2013 and it is intended to accredit all 137 schools by 2020.To achieve this ambitious aim,Chinese medical educators have entered into collaboration with their Australian counterparts,engendered by mutual membership of the Association for Medical Education in the Western Pacific Region,a regional division of the World Federation for Medical Education.The collaboration began in 2000 as informal discussions at regional meetings and has since developed three major components:workshops held throughout China for potential assessors and for medical schools undergoing accreditation; visits by Chinese accreditors to Australia to observe Australian Medical Council processes ; and participation by Australian assessors in the accreditation of Chinese medical schools.The incremental steps that led to this unique bi-national venture are outlined in the context of other international developments in accreditation of medical education.Then,the preparation,piloting and implementation of accreditation standards and guidelines with Chinese specifications are described.Finally,the outcomes achieved thus far and the challenges remaining are discussed.
