Abstract

Poster presentation delivered at the 2021 Health and Medical Education Scholarship Symposium. The presentation highlights the methodology employed in the design of the Precision Health Program consisting of a Certificate in Precision Health, a Graduate Diploma in Precision Health, and a Master of Precision Health. The program offers innovative, student-centered curriculum delivered in flexible formats that use technology strategically. It offers specializations in Precision Medicine, Quality and Safety Leadership, Health Professional Education Leadership, and Innovation and Entrepreneurship. The 1-year stand-alone credentials can be used for professional development or stacked for credit toward the master's degree.

The University of Calgary, located in the heart of Southern Alberta, both acknowledges and pays tribute to the traditional territories of the peoples of Treaty 7, which include the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprised of the Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations). The City of Calgary is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta (Districts 5 and 6).

The University of Calgary is situated on land Northwest of where the Bow River meets the Elbow River, a site traditionally known as Moh’kins’tsis to the Blackfoot, Wîchîspa to the Stoney Nakoda, and Guts’ists’i to the Tsuut’ina. On this land and in this place we strive to learn together, walk together, and grow together “in a good way.”
