Introduction: Accountability leads to transparency and commitment to responsibilities and makes each authority improve mission and promote the current system. Accountability of medical education system in the society requires considering degree of achieving the goals in this regard. This research has been done to study degree of achieving the accountable education indicators in clinical education departments in Tabriz university of medical sciences.
Method: This descriptive study carried out on four clinical education departments of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences including pediatrics, psychiatry and internal medicine departments (both learners and instructors) at the Medical Faculty, Educational- treatment centers of Imam Reza (AS), Sina and Razi using accountable education assessment tool consisting of 10 areas, 25 related criteria and indicators. Data was collected by interview, observation and documents reviewed .Data were analyzed using Mean statistics and alpha cronbach through SPSS.
Results: the functions of pediatrics, psychiatric and internal medicine educational groups in terms of ten- area accountable education were as follows: Pediatrics (61.45%) fairly good, psychiatry (43.37%) moderate and internal medicine (33.73%) moderate with a slightly lower function than psychiatry groups.
