CBT South Pacific | April 15-29, 2017 | 36.0 Mainpro+ credits
Physicians trained in medical CBT report better patient outcomes, less stress, and higher job satisfaction (see). Take your three core modules in whatever sequence you desire. You'll learn to provide much better psychological care within your standard-length appointments. And you'll earn "triple strength" Mainpro+ credits from the College of Family Physicians of Canada—wherever you choose to travel.
August 30, 2016. Today CBT Canada became the first organization ever to be accredited by the College of Family Physician of Canada to offer "triple strength" (3:1) credits in the new Mainpro+ system. In his assessment of our workshops, a CFPC accreditation reviewer wrote, "Two words: superlative & exemplary".
CBT Canada was federally incorporated 20 years ago, on April 2, 1996. We're the same age as Indigo, MSNBC, Pokémon, and WestJet—and a year older than Google. Back then Jean Chrétien & Bill Clinton were in office, the first DVD players were released in Japan, and Dolly the Sheep was cloned. Celine Dion's Because You Loved Me topped the Billboard charts, and The English Patient won the Academy Award.
CBT Canada is pleased to announce nine university collaborations, including the medical schools of Dalhousie University, McGill University, McMaster University, Memorial University, Queen's University, University of Alberta, University of Calgary, University of Toronto, and Western University.
CBT Canada is pleased to be giving three workshops in collaboration with McGill University this fall.
