Harvard Macy Institute

The Harvard Macy Institute educates, connects, and serves health care leaders around the globe by providing advanced faculty development programs, thought leadership, and impactful networking opportunities.

The CHA Office of Academic Affairs is very pleased to be able to host selection processes for our credentialed medical or allied health staff to receive tuition to attend the following HMI programs

Leading Innovation in Health Care & Education is a six-day project-based immersive in-person program that occurs annually in June.

The Program for Educators in Health Professions is an 8-month project-based blended program (one week virtually in October, monthly continuity sessions, one week in-person in May). On occasion we will consider funding tuition for other HMI programs for candidates whose projects directly advance our central CHA academic mission. 

The applicant’s institutional project must have full support of their department chair service-line leader and/or senior leadership. Furthermore, they must articulate how the program is likely to advance their overall career development at CHA.

For all HMI Programs, the applicant’s institutional project must have full support of their department chair service-line leader and/or senior leadership. Furthermore, they must articulate how the program is likely to advance their overall career development at CHA.

CHA Office of Academic Affairs-funded HMI scholars will be expected to join the CHA Academy of Educators, share their project accomplishments at the CHA-wide Poster session and may be asked to make  brief presentations in other CHA forums. Scholars also participate in the following year’s review committee.

If you are interested in speaking with a CHA colleague about their experience in the program, recent graduates include
