Under the leadership of Dr. Graham Wong, our Program Director for the UBC Adult Cardiology Training Program, we underwent a full review with Royal College accreditors, who then recommended that our program receive full accreditation by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons. The surveyors were impressed with the calibre of our program and particularly with the degree of engagement from both faculty and residents. In addition to our Advocacy Program, they commended our Rural Experience, Research Program, and Novel Assessments (simulation, clinical OSCE) as unique and innovative, and as standard-setting for the country.
We are all fortunate to work amongst supportive and committed faculty and together, we ensure a collaborative and enriching learning program for our residents and fellows.
