| Summary: | Faculty development involves activities that prepare faculty members to fulfill academic roles as teachers, educators, and leaders.

Recruiting occasional faculty developers, many of whom are also clinicians, to support faculty development programming can be challenging. In this article, we provide suggestions for how to successfully recruit and retain occasional faculty developers to provide education to medical faculty on teaching and other academic topics.
