The new normal affects the staffing of clinical education, including: pressure to use fellows, adjuncts and practitioners in residence; the outsourcing of externships to administrative staff; continuing tension over the status, participation and compensation of clinical faculty; and the potential for disparate impact on clinical faculty of color. This panel will explore staffing questions in all of these areas, to provide both context and practical guidance on the issues raised. After panel discussion, and with the benefit of recent CSALE data, participants will explore different staffing challenges faced at their schools in smaller groups.
