Policy for Consideration for Reduction in Training Duration

According to accreditation standards of the College of Family Physicians of Canada, all family medicine residents must complete a minimum of 23 of 24 months of residency training. However, under normal circumstances, it is expected that 24 months of training be completed by all residents.

Program length reduction will only be considered under extraordinary circumstances on a case by case basis by the Postgraduate Director and the following must occur:

Core rotations must be completed, and
Exemplary performance throughout residency program demonstrated by rotation evaluations

Please note that financial considerations and maternity/paternity leaves are not solely sufficient for approval in reduction of program length.
