​To adapt to emerging technologies, evolving systems and changing needs of patients, health care providers must expand their professional competencies to include research and inquiry. TIER is opening the doors to developing research for college-based health care professions, while also seeking education theories and practice to respond to emerging needs. Through our relationship with the Michener Institute for Education and UHN Research, we are leveraging existing structures to bring research, education and learning together.
