CACMS Public Hearing & Consultation

As part of its dedication to continuous quality improvement of undergraduate medical education, the Committee on Accreditation of Canadian Medical Schools (CACMS) is pleased to announce that it will hold a public hearing at the International Conference on Academic Medicine, taking place April 12-15, 2024, in Vancouver, BC.

To support the 2022-2023 match year, CANPREPP has once again made significant improvements and added functionalities to the web tool. As of October 2022, CANPREPP will include all sub-specialty programs with individual program profiles, launch a new and improved National Calendar of Events, further highlight programs with additional information on program profiles, provided dedicated information to International Medical Graduates, launch a new blog series to support learners, and significantly improve the functionality of program and user accounts to provide an easier to use web tool.  

CANPREPP is also excited to be joining the upcoming International Congress on Academic Medicine (ICAM) Conference taking place next April. The CANPREPP team will be on site engaging with stakeholders, spotlighting Canadian residency programs, providing tools and resources to learners, and collecting feedback on improving the web tool. CANPREPP will also be hosting a 60-minute session geared to learners as a further opportunity to connect and engage together on important issues related to transitioning to residency.  

As always, the CANPREPP team is immensely grateful for the support and feedback we have received thus far and are exited for the launch of third version this fall!
