Transport Canada’s Marine Medical Unit is organizing a virtual training seminar lasting 16 hours, specifically designed for Physicians and Nurse Practitioners who seek certification by TC to conduct occupational health assessments on seafarers. The seminar will be led by experts in adult learning, TC occupational health physicians, and other professionals in the health, medical, and seafaring fields. Two sessions will be available on-line, one in English (July) and another in French (October). Each session will consist of four 4-hour blocks conducted virtually over the span of four days. Attendance is free of charge.

The seminar will be conducted online, allowing participants to join from their office or the comfort of their own homes. Whether applicants have previous experience conducting marine medical examinations but haven’t attended this training seminar, are an experienced MME seeking a refresher, or are a Physician or Nurse Practitioner interested in becoming an MME, TC invites you to register today.
