The department staff includes a full-time chairman and full-time faculty members, including an assistant professor, 4 lecturers, a male technician, and a female administrative assistant. In addition, a team of 10-12 teaching assistants (TAs) for each course serve as facilitators to facilitate small group training sessions. The department has a very well-structured standardized patient (SP) program and a TA training program whereby all TAs are trained prior to their assigned sessions.
