Makassar — The Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (FMHS), Universitas Muhammadiyah Makassar, organized a Clinical Teaching and Clinical Assessment Training for Clinical Supervisors of the Medical Professional Program. The activity was conducted over two days, Friday–Saturday (19–20 December 2025), at Hotel Ibis Makassar, Pakarena Ballroom.

The program commenced with an official opening ceremony, followed by an initial discussion session addressing challenges and dynamics in the implementation of clinical learning within educational clinical settings. This discussion provided a platform for clinical supervisors to share experiences, particularly regarding variations in supervision methods and clinical assessment practices that have been applied to date.

The training aimed to enhance the capacity and competence of clinical supervisors in implementing standardized, objective, and competency-oriented clinical teaching and clinical assessment processes. The activity also formed part of FMHS Unismuh Makassar’s broader efforts to strengthen quality assurance in clinical medical education.

In her opening remarks, the Dean of FMHS Universitas Muhammadiyah Makassar, Prof. Dr. dr. Suryani As’ad, M.Sc., Sp.GK(K), expressed her appreciation for the implementation of the training. She emphasized that strengthening the role of clinical supervisors is a crucial factor in producing professional and ethically grounded medical graduates.

“Clinical teaching and clinical assessment do not merely focus on the acquisition of knowledge, but also on the development of clinical skills, professional attitudes, and ethical values among students. Therefore, clinical supervisors must share a common understanding based on clear and standardized principles,” Prof. Suryani stated.

According to her, the quality of medical professional graduates is largely determined by the quality of clinical education processes in clinical practice settings. Clinical supervisors play a dual role as educators and role models who directly shape the character and clinical competence of future physicians.

Throughout the training, participants were provided with materials on effective clinical teaching strategies, approaches to student supervision in clinical environments, and the application of objective and accountable clinical assessment instruments. Discussion sessions and case studies further enriched participants’ understanding of best practices in clinical medical education.

The activity also served as a forum to harmonize perspectives among clinical supervisors from various teaching hospitals and clinical training sites, enabling the consistent and sustainable implementation of standardized clinical learning and assessment.

Through this Clinical Teaching and Clinical Assessment Training, FMHS Universitas Muhammadiyah Makassar aims to further strengthen the quality of medical professional education and produce graduates who are competent, adaptive, and well-prepared to face the challenges of healthcare services at both national and global levels.
