Physician Examiners Needed!

Tuesday, October 9, 2007

Physicians are needed to act as Examiners for the Medical Council of Canada's Qualifying Examination Part II, which is occurring over the weekend of October 27 and 28.

MCCQE Part II is a 14 station Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) and a physician examiner is required for each station. The MCCQE Part II assesses the competence of candidates; specifically the knowledge, skills and attitudes essential for medical licensure in Canada, following a minimum of 12 months' supervised postgraduate medical training and prior to entry into independent clinical practice.

The dates are SATURDAY OCTOBER 27 AND SUNDAY OCTOBER 28, 2007, from approximately 7:00am until approximately 6:00pm on each date (we're asking people to commit to one date or the other, not necessarily both!). There is a small honorarium and lunch, snacks and coffee breaks will be provided. In addition, MCC will provide mileage reimbursement for those traveling more than 40 kms each way, and accomodation is provided for anyone more than 2 hours away from London. You can also collect Mainpro and RCSPC credits for examining!

Remember, in order to examine for the MCC, you must have an LMCC number and have been in independent practice for at least three years.
