A transcript bank is a space in which a faculty member records all their faculty development and continuing education activities. As health care professions increasingly engage competencies for all aspects of training, practice and teaching, they also require demonstration of the activities being done to build and maintain those competencies. In addition, regulatory bodies increasingly require evidence of those activities. This is an example of System-Based Practice.
A transcript bank makes it easier, and faster, for faculty to provide that information. As a result we recommend that you submit all your educational activities to your bank and that you teach your residents to do the same as that will become increasingly important for them as they move into their careers.
We recommend the MCHS Learning Connection Transcript Bank for recording all your continuing education and professinal development activities. The training you do at MCHS sponsored programs automatically is recorded in the bank, so you only need to enter those done outside the system.
