Canada’s healthcare systems have evolved throughout the course of our country’s history. Each provincial and federal government have added elements to the systems with the intention for improvement. Alongside these developments, Canada is accepting more and more newcomers and is experiencing more older Canadians retiring than ever before. This leads to an influx of Internationally Trained Medical Graduates (IMGs) and Internationally Educated Nurses (IENs) as well as a decline in Canadian trained physicians and nurses. Some newcomers to Canada want to use their education from their country of origin prior to immigration and seek to become certified and employable in our healthcare systems. Such steps and methods may be tedious for the newcomer and when presented in a language they may not be as familiar with, confusion in steps required to obtain a professional role as a physician or nurse in Canada can occur.

This webinar, presented by Dr. Zubin Austin of the University of Toronto, will provide a historical context from an Ontario perspective of the work that has occurred to assist in IMG and IEN integration as well as the barriers that IMGs and IENs experience when attempting to gain employment in Canada as a physician or nurse respectively.

This webinar will also present:

  • Government actions over history that led to various programs and initiatives to allow IEHPs the opportunity to work as a nurse or physician in our healthcare systems
  • Methods to help integrate current IMGs and IENs across Canada
  • What can N4 Members do to assist IMGs and/or IENs obtain appropriate certifications in your local area
