全球高等医学教育的认证特点及启示

Accreditation Characteristics and Enlightenment of Global Higher Medical Education

制定医学教育标准是保证医学教育质量的前提。自世界医学教育联合会颁发《医学教育全球标准》以来,各国均在此基础上修改和完善本国的认证体系。通过梳理和总结全球高等医学教育认证概况,发现美国、加拿大、澳大利亚、韩国等国的认证实施机制为多主体参与的市场导向型,其认证机构多为自发性、非营利性的民间组织,认证标准严格、多元,认证程序可操作性强。据此,我国应当加强对高校医学教育的评估,既要注重认证主体多元化与国际化,还要加强认证目标的本质化与脉络化,完善更为层级化和科学化的认证标准,在推进高等医学教育发展的同时,增强相关院校的社会责任意识,确保我国高等医学教育的基本质量水平。

Establishing medical education standards is a prerequisite for ensuring the quality of medical education.Since the issuance of the Global Standards for Medical Education by World Federation of Medical Education(WFME),countries have been modifying and improving their own accreditation systems on this basis.By reviewing and summarizing the global overview of accreditation in medical education,it is found that countries such as the United States,Canada,Australia,and South Korea have implemented market-oriented mechanisms with multiple participating entities.Their accreditation bodies are predominantly voluntary and non-profit civil organizations with strict and diversified accreditation standards and highly operational accreditation procedures.Based on this,it is suggested that China should strengthen the evaluation of medical education in universities,including emphasizing the diversification and internationalization of accreditation bodies,strengthening the essence and context of accreditation goals,as well as improving the hierarchization and scientificity of accreditation standards.It is important to enhance the awareness of social responsibility among relevant institutions while promoting the development of higher medical education,so as to ensure the basic level of medical education in China.
