Unfortunately, SICS teaching is not routinely taught and many clinician teachers (CTs) never received training on how to teach them. We funded two cohorts of CTs to learn an evidence-based approach to SICS teaching to scale a unified approach to such training.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The primary aim of this study was to explore CT experiences and attitudes toward SICS teaching following completion of VitalTalk Faculty Development training.

Fifteen (83%) of CTs completed the survey and 6 (40%) were interviewed.

Post-training, 90% of cohort 1 and 0% of cohort 2 taught SICS in workshops. Seventy percent of cohort 1 and 60% of cohort 2 taught SICS at the bedside across 10 specialties and interdisciplinary groups. Top cited teaching enablers were funding, protected time, and administrative support. All participants reported being likely to teach a workshop within the year. Eighty percent reported training increased their comfort to lead such conversations and 67% reported more frequently engaging in them. Qualitative analysis revealed that successful implementation requires SICS teaching to be valued at every level of the institution.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Investing in faculty development for a group of CTs led to increased confidence in teaching about and having serious illness conversations and informed needs for a local community-of-practice primed to rapidly scale SICS teaching.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1089\/pmr.2024.0073","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,26]],"date-time":"2025-05-26T03:30:22Z","timestamp":1748230222000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["An Educational Initiative Describing Clinician Teachers\u2019 Experiences Following Serious Illness Communication Skills Faculty Development Training"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"6","author":[{"given":"Helen","family":"James","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Supportive Care, Division of Palliative Care, University Health Network, Toronto, Canada."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jacquelin","family":"Forsey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Supportive Care, Division of Palliative Care, University Health Network, Toronto, Canada."},{"name":"The Wilson Centre, University Health Network, Toronto, Canada."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kyle","family":"Albuquerque-Boutilier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Supportive Care, Division of Palliative Care, University Health Network, Toronto, Canada."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jillian","family":"Gustin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Palliative Medicine, The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, Columbus, Ohio, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Warren Harris","family":"Lewin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Supportive Care, Division of Palliative Care, University Health Network, Toronto, Canada."},{"name":"Department of Family &amp; Community Medicine, Division of Palliative Care, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_5_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jamainternmed.2014.5271"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1089\/jpm.2012.0547"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1377\/hlthaff.2010.0929"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_5_2","unstructured":"Frank JR Snell L Sherbino J. editors.
