ASME Institutional ‘Commitment to Scholarship’ Award
ASME’s mission is to Advance Scholarship in Medical Education. Many of our awards have supported individuals to achieve excellence in medical education but, of course, the organisation in which the individual is embedded can make a huge difference to their ability to achieve this excellence. Therefore, we are delighted to introduce the ASME Institutional ‘Commitment to Scholarship’ Award.
This award is a non-monetary prize awarded to an institution that is a member of ASME and claims exceptional commitment to ‘Advancing Scholarship in Medical Education’ (i.e. research, evaluation, innovation, practitioner inquiry), including translation of medical education ‘evidence’ into policy or practice.
A maximum of three awards were available for 2021, one from each of the following application categories:
1) Higher Education Institution (e.g. school/college of medicine, nursing, dentistry, veterinary science, etc)
2) Healthcare provider (e.g. NHS Trust)
3) Other (e.g. charity, placement provider, royal college etc).
Applying institutions must be institutional members of ASME.
We are now pleased to announce the recipients of the 2021 round.
Research Department of Medical Education at UCL Medical School
Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust (NHCT)
Scottish Medical Education Research Consortium (SMERC)
Congratulations to all of you.
Representatives from the applicants’ teams will join us on Thursday 24th June at 12 noon for our “Celebrating Success – ASME Honours” presentation where they will talk about their exceptional commitment to ‘Advancing Scholarship in Medical Education’ .
