Future of Medical Education of Canada (FMEC)
The FMEC MD report looks at how education programs leading to the Medical Doctor (MD) degree in Canada can best respond to society’s evolving needs.
AFMC published the FMEC MD report and its 10 recommendations in 2010. Health Canada is graciously acknowledged for its generous funding provided in support.
As a consortium and with the support of Health Canada, the AFMC, CFPC, CMQ and RCPSC, released 10 FMEC PG recommendations in 2012, building on the work of the FMEC MD project and exploring Postgraduate medical education (PGME) as part of the learning continuum for physicians, focusing on medical students as they move into postgraduate training and, later, into practice.
The third report on FMEC sets out 11 enabling recommendations to support physician learning and continuing practice improvement. This report was released in 2019 and is the result of further collective visioning involving seven Partners – the AFMC, CFPC, CMA, CMPA, FMRAC, MCC and RCPSC.
