The Department of Physical Therapy is excited to host the Medical Education Research Certificate (MERC) program in 2021. This program aims to promote the scholarship of teaching and learning within and beyond the School of Health Professions.

Developed by the Association of American Medical Colleges, the MERC program will provide participants with the knowledge necessary to understand purposes and processes of medical education research, to become informed consumers of the medical education research literature, and to be effective collaborators in medical education research.

Available to SHP faculty and staff at no cost, the MERC program will be held virtually over three weekends. Additional details including dates/times, course topics, certificate requirements, speakers, space availability, and registration can be found in the School of Health Professions Canvas page.

University partners may contact Brad Willis, PT, MPT, associate teaching professor, at willisbw@umsystem.edu with questions.
