Training Pathways

Training pathways are two year certificate programs that provide residents and fellows with additional knowledge, skills and professional preparation alongside their chosen medical specialty. Participation in a training pathway occurs concurrently with residency or fellowship training.

Training pathways offer:

  • Demonstrable knowledge and skills for potential employers
  • Enhanced well-being from work-work diversity
  • Membership in a community outside of your training program
  • Better understanding of career paths
  • Opportunities to take on additional roles
  • Preparation for the career you want
