Strategic planning, typically used in business settings, can also be useful in developing and implementing interprofessional faculty development programming. Using the SWOT analysis, a strategic planning technique, educational leaders can identify the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats to interprofessional faculty development at their medical centers and plan innovative programing to address this need.  

Objectives:

• Define, describe, and use the SWOT analysis to develop and implement interprofessional faculty development programing at their institution. 
• Create an action plan for interprofessional faculty development initiatives at their medical centers.  
• Understand how one large Academic Medical Center applied the SWOT Analysis to develop two successful, innovative interprofessional faculty development programs.
