Abstract

Professionalism is an important aspect of medical training and health systems work; however, it’s integration into teaching varies. Context and learners’ perspectives are crucial in undergraduate medical education (UME) because students need to develop a sense of coherence—a construct that contributes to resilience in working with complex environments.

The shifting debate in UME emphasizes that education remains learner cantered and ought to be guided by learner needs1 to provide unique insights into the interventions, but also the context in which the learners are taught.2 We contend that identifying and integrating approaches from the learner perspective is important for supporting medical students and can increase satisfaction in their work and career, and professional competence.
