A peer observation of teaching (POT) program is a valuable faculty development tool to enhance medical educators as teachers in clinical settings. Unlike delayed feedback from learners, which is aggregated later to protect anonymity, POT leverages faculty knowledge and real-time experiences through customizable workplace-based initiatives. Despite these theoretical benefits, POT programs encounter common barriers such as time constraints, lack of engagement, inadequate administrative support, and faculty apprehensions about providing peer feedback. This webinar equips participants interested in developing or revising a POT program with practical solutions. Drawing on personal experiences leading POT programs, the presenters will facilitate discussions to address relevant barriers. By framing this discussion with a “Peer Observation of Teaching Blueprint” worksheet, participants will leave having already drafted a feasible plan to institute this faculty development initiative at their home institution.
