Licensing and qualifications requirements:

To have or ability to obtain CPSA Eligibility Letter

These are CPSA minimum requirements and these do not automatically make you eligible for the General Register.

CPSA has the same basic expectations of all applicants, including locums, physicians with Canadian credentials and those with international training. Some of the requirements below apply only to physicians who were trained outside of Canada. This is all part of our commitment to ensuring Albertans get safe and consistent medical care.

Medical degree

from a school listed in the World Directory of Medical Schools

Proof of English Language Proficiency

if you were trained in a country where English is not the first and native language (even if English was the language of instruction). For more on this requirement, visit English Language Proficiency.

MCCQE Part 1--

The Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination Part 1 (MCCQE Part 1) is a national exam offered through MCC to ensure the critical medical knowledge and clinical decision-making ability of an international medical graduate (IMG) is at the level expected of a Canadian medical school graduate. CPSA will accept the complete United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) as an equivalent to the MCCQE Part 1. We do not accept a partial USMLE.

Currency of practice

--within the last 3 years, you need to have practised independently or been a part of a continuous postgraduate training program for a minimum of 1 year in the discipline you want to enter in Alberta. Fellowship training, community service, public service, national service, Medical Officer posts and practice experience don't fulfill this requirement.

Postgraduate training requirements

for your discipline. If you are pursuing Family Medicine or General Practice, you need to have completed a continuous, university-affiliated Family Medicine postgraduate training program (at least 24 months) including 4 months of community-based primary care and 8 weeks in 3 of the following: pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, surgery and internal medicine. Applicants trained outside of Canada and approved jurisdictions (see below) must list each rotation of their completed University affiliated, family medicine program (including the start and end date of each rotation) on their Review of Qualifications form. If CPSA deems the applicant eligible to move forward, this same document must be verifiable via physiciansapply.ca. Sharing documents on physiciansapply.ca does not exclude the need to provide the rotations on the form submission. For Specialty Practice, you must have successfully completed a specialty residency in Canada or a continuous, university-affiliated discipline-specific specialty postgraduate training program of at least 48 months and equal to Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada Specialty Training Requirements and have specialist certification. Certification must be issued by a certifying body, not a training institution and/or university. As of Jan. 22, 2024, CPSA accepts the Royal College's Subspecialist Examination Affiliate Program (SEAP) credentials towards licensure.
(

NOTE:

Fellowship training, community service, public service, national service, house officer, medical officer posts and practice experience do not satisfy the postgraduate training requirements.)

Therapeutics Decision Making (TDM) exam

if you are a Family Medicine physician who got their training outside of Canada. The TDM exam is the second exam offered through MCC that Family Medicine IMGs take to prove they have the right skills and training to practice in Canada. For more information about the TDM exam, to see the next test dates and to apply for the test, visit our TDM exam page. If your postgraduate training was in USA, UK, Ireland or Australia, you might not have to write the TDM exam. We suggest you first apply to the College of Family Physicians of Canada (CFPC) for certification without examination. If CFPC sends you a notice recognizing your training and you meet all the other CPSA eligibility requirements, you can go straight to Step 2--Create an account with physiciansapply.ca.
As of October 1, 2020, if you are a Family Medicine physician and you want to join our Provisional Register, you will need to pass the TDM exam and get sponsorship within 1 year of receiving your CPSA eligibility letter. Once you have both, your Registration Administrator will send you a letter outlining which documentation we need before you register for our Provisional Register.

A criminal record check or police certificate

is required from all locations you have practised and/or trained for more than 90 days in the last 5 years. Canadian criminal record checks are nation-wide, so only 1 is required. Although we don't need it, we will accept a vulnerable sector check if it is a part of your criminal record check. In Canada, criminal record checks must be obtained through the RCMP or local police services. Any third-party or online criminal record checks (or police certificates) will not be accepted.

Patient Relations education

is required under the HPA and mandatory for CPSA registration. On April 1, 2019, the Alberta government approved amendments to the Health Professions Act (HPA) to protect patients. Applicants are provided with a link to complete this training at the applicable stage. Ability to obtain licensing with CPSA or valid CPSA licence to practice ( College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta) We are eager to hear from you in order to help you build your long term practice with a dedicated and friendly team.
Our environment is stress free and all physicians work well together and are very friendly. We provide great coverage for all physicians to suit a great work/life balance.

We look forward to meeting you.
