Welcome to the website of the Harvard Macy Institute. The Institute works to inspire and promote real organizational change by training individuals, groups, and organizations across the continuum of health science education. The Institute delivers continuing healthcare education programs designed to instruct faculty educators in the health professions in methods for translating their knowledge and capabilities into organization-wide improvements. Our commitment is to the cross-fertilization of ideas among all faculty involved in healthcare education.   Through these programs, the Institute offers a lifelong membership in a global community of leaders, scientists and educators transforming healthcare education at the local level.

The website was created primarily as an electronic platform for alumni of Institute programs to share information and exchange ideas on healthcare education.
