PRA-BC Application Process – Info Session
Practice Ready Assessment – British Columbia (PRA-BC) is a program for internationally trained physicians who have completed postgraduate training in family medicine outside of Canada, and who wish to become licensed to practice in BC. PRA-BC provides these family physicians with a pathway to licensure in British Columbia (BC), Canada. Candidates undergo a 12-week Clinical Field Assessment where their clinical skills are rigorously assessed. Those who successfully complete program requirements go on to fulfill a 3-year Return of Service (ROS) in a BC community of need. You can learn more about PRA-BC at www.prabc.ca or the attached flyer.
Please join us for an information session where we will navigate the ins and outs of the PRA-BC application process, share compelling success stories of past applicants, and address all your questions!
