Historia
The MERIT (McMaster Education Research, Innovation and Theory) Program is an education services program that has served the Faculty of Health Sciences for more than 45 years. MERIT is dedicated to supporting FHS departments and programs in advancing health professions education scholarship.
Initially led by Victor Neufeld, who was the first head of the earliest iteration of MERIT, known as the Program for Education Development (PED), it supported educational innovation in the School of Medicine. Following Neufeld, there were a number of directors, including Brian Haynes and Jennifer Blake. Between 1987 and 1997, Geoff Norman became director and reassumed the role after a short spell of leadership from Jennifer Blake. He renamed it as the Program for Education Research Development (PERD).
In its various iterations it has, on the one hand, supported and initiated numerous innovations in the health science educational programs, and on the other, has an international reputation for educational research and scholarship. In 2012, Norman was replaced by Harold Reiter. The current Assistant Dean, Jonathan Sherbino, took over in 2017 and the program adopted its current name and vision.
