Description
We know that accreditation and certification is an important part of our health professions education universe, but often there is confusion about how the educational offerings we are developing for our community fits with the requirements. This session seeks to explore the ethos of Continuing Professional Development accreditation, clarify common questions, and as a community help us all work towards our common goals of providing quality education throughout the system. Morag Paton, Associate Director, Maintenance of Certification and Education Consultation Services, will engage in an informal dialogue with our Member community to explore tensions and common questions.
If you have any questions or curiosities about accreditation you want to see addressed, please let us know here.
