Abstract
Background: University-based health professions educators are typically recruited from clinical environments and enter academic institutions into complex educational roles. However, for many health professions educators, navigating this transition is complicated by a lack of formal qualification in education coupled with inconsistent expectations regarding their educational role and development. Moreover, in a context where universities are increasingly introducing teaching-focused pathways, educators are facing increasing demands in relation to educational scholarship and innovation. Therefore, this study sought to determine how university-based health professions educators make sense of and navigate their educational role and their developmental needs.
