The Teacher Certificate Program (TCP) is a series of online teacher development workshops provided as a collaboration between the regional Island, Northern, Southern, and Vancouver-Fraser Medical Programs. The Teacher Certificate Program (TCP) aims to equip teachers in medical education with the basic knowledge and skills to teach effectively.
TCP is divided into two programs:
- TCP 1: Focus on Foundational Teaching is designed to cover core teaching and assessment competencies for those who teach in the MD Undergraduate Program (MDUP). This certificate is eligible for CME credits.
- TCP 2: Focus on Career Planning & Wellness is designed with attention to the career and personal growth of clinical faculty in the MDUP. Updated with new topics this year! Some topics are eligible for CME credits.
The two programs are entirely separate, with no prerequisites, and can be completed in any order.
