This award recognizes individuals who have made a significant and sustained contribution to the assessment of professional competency and educational program development at any level along the continuum of medical education and delivery of health care.

The deadline for 2010 Hubbard Award nominations has passed.  Updated information about the Hubbard Award will be posted after the NBME Annual Meeting on March 25-26, 2010.

It is expected that the successful candidate will have demonstrated outstanding achievement in one or more of the following areas:

• a substantial record of fostering the development of evaluation methods and/or measurement techniques; or
• personal contributions to basic or applied research in the creation or improvement of assessment methodology; or
• accomplishment in improving the quality of evaluation at an organizational level; or
• contributions through the education or mentoring of students, colleagues, fellows, or graduate students, to further progress in evaluation

The Hubbard Award recognizes significant and sustained contributions to the pursuit of excellence in the field of evaluation in medicine. Recognition of contributions to medicine in curricular development, instructional methodology, or medical training methods is not the primary purpose of the award.
