To qualify, you must:

- Pass the Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examinations (MCCQE I and MCCQE II)

- Complete a 12 months postgraduate training.

RE: Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examinations (MCCQE I and MCCQE II):

MCCQE I: This can be written outside Canada. Check to see if there is a "Prometric" Test Centre in your country that facilitates this.

MCCQE II: Can only be written in Canada.

Step 3:

Once Step 2 is completed you receive official certification from any of the below:

- The Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada
- College of Family Physicians of Canada;
- The College des Medecins du Quebec

If you are busy & would rather outsource the whole process of:

- Applying for exams & medical registration.
- Sharing credentials with medical regulatory authorities & other organizations.
- Transitioning to practice in Canada,

physiciansapply.ca is your best platform.
