Description: |
This call for proposals is from the Committee on the Identification of Future Dentists (CIFD) who's mandate is to oversee research and development of recruitment and admissions tools and processes in order to recommend methods to facilitate identification and admission to dental school of individuals with both the aptitudes required to become successful dentists and the diversity of motivation and goals needed to meet the oral health needs of Canadians. The purpose of this call is to help Canadian dental schools decide on the tools and processes that should (and should not) be used in the dental student selection process. This RFP is focussed on the assessment of social skills and aims at answering the following research questions:
Should assessments of human and social skills (i.e. non-academic and non-manual skills) be used in the admissions process for Canadian dental schools? If so, what assessment tools should be used and how should they be used? Please contact researchoffice@uwo.ca or mbouchard@cda-adc.ca for more information. |
