McMaster University actually has a workshop called "Improving Your
Practice/Teaching Through Evidence-Based Clinical Practice"
http://ebm.mcmaster.ca/ I work with one the physician instructors who has
attended/taught a few times and I can honestly say that his grasp on EBM
and teaching methods are superb.

The only other thing I would suggest would be to include librarians as
instructors and have them teach how to choose the best tool for each
question and how to use each of those tools. No one knows or understands
best how to do this like a librarian. Another responded that they have
librarians as part of their program and so does McMaster.
