The Arc of Success depicts the career path of an individual pursuing a career in biomedical/behavior research. The DPC developed and mapped these elements onto the Hallmarks of Success. The Hallmarks are used to guide the Consortium-Wide Evaluation (CWEP) spanning student, faculty/mentor and institutional impacts. (Return to CEC Products page)
Student/Trainee Hallmarks |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Preamble Hallmarks assume there is baseline data on program participants and a similar group not in the program. Progress towards hallmarks means that those in the program do better over time than comparisons. The hallmarks are goals to achieve or move towards over the course of the program. If the hallmark is already at a high level, then maintenance is the goal. |

Faculty Hallmarks |
|||
---|---|---|---|
Preamble Hallmarks assume there is baseline data on program participants and a similar group not in the program. Progress towards hallmarks means that those in the program do better over time than comparisons. The hallmarks are goals to achieve or move towards over the course of the program. If the hallmark is already at a high level, then maintenance is the goal. Note: In all Hallmarks the term "Biomedical" is defined as "Behavioral and biomedical health-related". |

FAC-3 | High self-efficacy as a mentor to biomedical research trainees | ||
FAC-4 | High self-efficacy as a mentor to a diverse group of biomedical research trainees | ||
FAC-5 | Frequently mentors students, post-docs, and/or more junior faculty on biomedical related issues | ||
FAC-6 | High self-efficacy as an independent biomedical researcher | ||
FAC-7 | High self-efficacy in the ability to secure external funding | ||
