DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Training programs in biomedical science were once directed towards careers in academic research. Now, innovative approaches to prepare for the current and ever-changing biomedical workforce must be considered. BU's BEST seeks to implement bold new initiatives to "re-engineer the training pipeline". Using analysis of the job market as the driver of professional development programming, BU's BEST will enable trainees to fulfill the needs, not only of the current market, but also the future biomedical workforce. The strengths of the new training paradigm are its strategic institutional partnerships and those within private and non-profit sectors as well as the framework to catalyze institutional change. The aims are: Aim I: To "re-engineer" biomedical training whereby the job market informs curriculum development. Groundbreaking tools and resources will be implemented to analyze workforce data with input from key stakeholders to guide and evolve curriculum design. State-of-the-art software will identify biomedical workforce jobs, job trends and skills required for various career pathways. Our evidence-based approach will also be informed by strategic insights from BU's BEST team of consultants that includes an internal advisory committee comprised of BU faculty and staff, an external advisory committee of leaders in non-academic biomedically-related professions and BU alumni. Evaluation outcomes will be monitored and assessed annually and used to direct development of specific training resources and approaches. Aim 2: To develop a curriculum to prepare trainees for future careers. A framework will be implemented that provides doctoral students and postdoctoral researchers the opportunity to consider, explore and gain experience in achieving their individual goals. Importantly, exciting, new software will be developed in collaboration with our partners to enable trainees to identify and work toward their goals. With strong advising/mentoring, trainees will be exposed to a curriculum of foundational/professional skills and career options via coursework, workshops, career panels as well as hybrid online modules. Graduate students and postdoctoral researchers will be able to enhance their interests through a wealth of options via existing and planned coursework, and participation in shadowing experiences with a network of faculty, administrators, alumni and industry partners. Finally, trainees will have opportunities to further develop their interests by participation in internships, teaching and/or formal academic training (certificate or MA/MS degrees). Aim 3: To advance a university culture that engages faculty in a new training paradigm. Developing a curriculum for trainees is of limited value if the institutiona culture is not supportive i.e. if the faculty does not support trainees who want to explore options An essential part of our plan is to use strategies that specifically target barriers to attaining ad sustaining success. Institutional strategies to support a culture shift and recognition of effectiv mentoring are presented. The BU's BEST plan is transformational and impactful in that program elements lend themselves to easy adaptation by other institutions.

描述（由申请人提供）：生物医学科学领域的培训计划曾经针对学术研究的职业。现在，必须考虑为当前和不断变化的生物医学劳动力做准备的创新方法。 BU的最佳努力致力于实施大胆的新计划，以“重新设计培训管道”。利用将就业市场分析作为专业发展计划的驱动力，BU的最佳人选将使受训者不仅可以满足当前市场的需求，而且还可以满足未来的生物医学劳动力的需求。这 新培训范式的优势是其战略机构合作伙伴关系，私营和非营利部门内部的机构合作伙伴关系以及促进机构变革的框架。目的是：目标：“重新设计”生物医学培训，从而使工作市场为课程开发提供了信息。将实施开创性的工具和资源，以通过关键利益相关者的意见来分析劳动力数据，以指导和进化课程设计。最先进的软件将确定各种职业途径所需的生物医学劳动力工作，工作趋势和技能。 BU最佳顾问团队的战略见解还将为我们的循证方法提供信息，其中包括由BU教职员工和员工组成的内部咨询委员会，该委员会是非学术生物医学与生物医学相关职业和BU校友的外部咨询委员会的外部咨询委员会。评估结果将每年监控和评估，并用于指导特定培训资源和方法的开发。目标2：开发课程以为未来职业做好准备。将实施一个框架，为博士生和博士后研究人员提供了考虑，探索和获得实现个人目标的经验的机会。重要的是，激动人心的新软件将与我们的合作伙伴合作开发，以使学员能够识别和努力实现其目标。有了强烈的建议/指导，学员将通过课程，研讨会，职业面板以及混合在线模块来接触基础/专业技能和职业选择的课程。研究生和博士后研究人员将能够通过现有和计划的课程通过大量选择来增强他们的兴趣，并与教职员工，管理员，校友和行业合作伙伴网络一起参与阴影体验。最后，学员将有机会通过参加实习，教学和/或正式的学术培训（证书或MA/MS学位）来进一步发展自己的兴趣。目标3：推进一种吸引教师进行新培训范式的大学文化。如果机构文化不支持，即如果教师不支持想要探索期权的受训者，我们计划的重要组成部分是使用专门针对取得广告持续成功的障碍的策略，则为学员开发课程的价值有限。提出了支持文化转变和认可有效指导的制度策略。 BU的最佳计划是变革性和影响力在该计划元素中，可以轻松适应其他机构。
