UBC Continuing Professional Development (UBC CPD) is an academic unit within the Faculty of Medicine at the University of British Columbia. We advance the field of continuing professional development (CPD) through the design, delivery, accreditation, evaluation and research of lifelong learning opportunities for health professionals in British Columbia and beyond. As a learning organization, we believe in the power of education, connection and reflection to support a thriving health-care system in pursuit of healthy communities, social justice and knowledge translation.

We design, deliver, accredit, research and evaluate lifelong learning opportunities for health professionals in British Columbia and beyond.

We’re highlighting some great mental health medical education on a variety of specialized topics throughout March for health professionals across the province. It’s also National Nutrition Month – a great time to learn about the new pediatric nutrition guidelines. The newest FPON webinar on the subject of lung cancer has just launched and we also invite you to read our latest TCMP article on ceiling doses of ketorolac and ibuprofen in acute pain management. If you’re a rural physician looking to get involved in rurally focused program development, leadership coaching and mentoring, we’re calling on you to submit your interest to work with UBC CPD as a subject matter expert.
