The document discusses the Faculty Development Program (FDP) run by the Center for Professional and Institutional Development at the Ministry of Public Health in Thailand. The FDP aims to develop competencies in medical teachers in four areas - medical knowledge, research skills, educational knowledge, and generic skills. It outlines the expected outcomes of the program and the four phases of faculty development. It also provides details about past programs conducted since 1995 and future plans to focus on specialty clinical training, fellowships, and research networks through collaborations.
