Faculty development in CBME is crucial to its successful implementation due to<br>differences from the traditional approach. The global, national and regional perspectives with regard to CBME and<br>its implementation and what faculty development must focus on in the CBME context are presented. The<br>experiences from Southeast Asia while implementing CBME are shared. The developments in India at national and<br>regional level, specifically, the National Faculty Development Programme initiative of the Medical Council of India<br>and regional initiatives at the level of health science universities and related perspectives are presented. The<br>elements of faculty development critical to successful CBME implementation are highlighted. The challenges and<br>strategies in order to maximize the possibility of successful implementation of CBME are discussed. A well planned<br>faculty development strategy can address the deficiencies in training of health professionals towards improved<br>health outcomes through CBME.
