To verify your documents, visit https://onlinelearning.hms.harvard.edu/hmx/verify and enter the Document ID found on your certificate or cover letter. The verification link and Document ID can also be shared with others–for example, employers or institutions–to demonstrate the authenticity of your documents.
If you are listing an HMX course on an AMCAS, PharmCAS, SOPHAS, or other application, you should include it in the “work and activities” section. As HMX courses are not for credit and do not provide transcripts, they should not be listed as “course work.” We will not be able to provide a transcript should an admissions office contact us regarding your HMX courses. If contact information is required, please list Safiya Bobb, Associate Director, Program Operations – onlinelearning@hms.harvard.edu.
If you are listing an HMX course on your resume, we suggest listing it under the education section, below any earned degrees. Courses should be listed as “HMX Fundamentals/Pro program (Harvard Medical School online learning platform) – [course titles]”.
