Learning Objectives

The practice of anesthesia requires knowledge and skills from several disciplines. The PGY-1 year has been designed to provide a broad understanding of medicine and to facilitate success on the LMCC Part II Examination, a current requirement of all Canadian Licensing authorities.

Residents not entering anesthesia residency immediately following medical school are advised to apply for credit for the PGY-1 year promptly upon acceptance to the program. For basic clinical training, the RCPSC Credential Committee will accept: rotating, transitional, mixed or straight internships; residency training in family medicine; and/or basic clinical training that is integrated into specialty residency programs.
