Background & Objective: Interpersonal communication has been constantly been taken into consideration in recent years and has been considered an important requirement for successful job performance in organizations. This study aimed to explain the experiences and views of managers and staff of Zanjan University of Medical Sciences, Zanjan, Iran, on interpersonal communication skills. Materials & Methods: The present qualitative study was conducted with a conventional content analysis approach. The participants (n=10) were selected from the educational managers and staff of Zanjan University of Medical Sciences using the purposive sampling method and taking into account the maximum diversity in demographic characteristics, such as age, gender, education level, and job position. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews until reaching saturation and analyzed simultaneously. Qualitative data analysis was performed manually. Results: Based on the participants' experiences, 160 initial codes were extracted, which were eventually classified into two main categories, including facilitators and inhibitors, of which only the facilitators were examined in this study. The main category of facilitators was summarized in 19 subcategories and 6 categories, including the facilitator's personal and professional characteristics, quality of work life, organizational structures, organizational civic behaviors, communication skills and channels, and attention to ethical and ideological principles. Conclusion: The results of the study showed that from the point of view of managers and employees of medical education, paying attention to the facilitators of interpersonal communication was one of the most important factors in interpersonal communication, and addressing them would strengthen effective interpersonal communication, lead to better interactions between employees, increase satisfaction, and improve the quality of work.

Background & Objective: The professional identity of nursing students was defined as the primary trend in becoming a profession. The present study aimed to explore the factors affecting students' professional identity as nurses. Materials & Methods: This Study is a qualitative content analysis from May 2019 to October 2020. The participants were contributed through purposefully sampling. Data were collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews. The duration of each interview was between 30 and 60 minutes. Interviews continued until data saturation. Data analysis was performed simultaneously with Graneheim and Lundman approach. Results: 123 open codes with five subcategories and two categories were extracted. In the present study, "belongingness" was explained as the central theme. Two categories, "positive role model in the education process" and "The perception of the society towards the nursing profession," were explored. Conclusion: The present results showed that the identification of nursing students is influenced by belonging influenced by the nursing community and the general community. In addition, the community’s appreciation of the nursing profession and the approval and respect for the nursing profession among the community members have been considered crucial factors for nursing students to become good nurses. Due to the importance of growing a belonging and better understanding of professional identity by nursing students in the educational period, the development of teachers’ abilities as a model and creating a platform for recognizing the professional identity of nursing among community and medical science students is recommended.

Background & Objective: Institutional accreditation is a type of quality assurance in medical education to achieve quality standards in higher education institutions. The present study aimed at internal evaluation of the faculties affiliated to Zanjan University of Medical Sciences based on the institutional accreditation standards. Materials & Methods: This study was conducted based on a descriptive cross-sectional design. The research samples included all the faculties affiliated to Zanjan University of Medical Sciences. This study was performed based on the national institutional accreditation standards (IA), including 66 standards and 351 measures in eight evaluation domains, approved by the Ministry of Health and Medical Education. In order to conduct an internal evaluation based on institutional accreditation standards, the experts in the fields of institutional accreditation were initially provided with the necessary training. Upon the collection of documents, the data was evaluated by the research group based on the accreditation standards. In the next step, to confirm the documents and complete the internal evaluation, a field visit was conducted to the educational and research facilities of the faculties based on the accreditation standards. Finally, the faculty officials and senior managers of Zanjan University of Medical Sciences were provided with feedback on the results of the internal evaluation in the two sections of mandatory and developmental standards. Results: As evidenced by the obtained results, Zanjan University of Medical Sciences showed significant improvement in the achievement of accreditation standards in field evaluations. The highest and lowest percentages of compliance with the standards were observed in the faculties of nursing-midwifery and health- paramedicine, respectively. Conclusion: In order to reach an ideal level in all necessary standards and improve the quality of medical education, in addition to the provision of necessary infrastructure, managers, professors, and experts in the field of education need to be thoroughly familiar with institutional accreditation standards.
