INGUIDE - Level 1 Master Guideline Developer and Chair Certification Course (2021)

From 2019 to 2021 I worked as the Digital Pedagogy Specialist for McMaster’s Department of Health Research Methods, Evidence, and Impact (HEI). During my time there, I aided in the development of The International Guideline Training and Certification (INGUIDE) Program.

In addition to developing the program, I worked with the MacPherson Institute to get a private “slice” the of unviersity’s learning management system (LMS) created. The LMS traditionally does not allow participants without McMaster IDs to access it, but this slice would allow us to offer the course worldwide.

I left the position in January of 2021 and the program launched July 2021.
