Description:

The two-year program is accredited by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. NPM Subspecialty Residents are trained to become independent Neonatologists. The program involves learning opportunities through clinical practice in the NICU, outpatient clinics, academic classroom curriculum, scholarly activities, and leadership positions.



The emphasis of our curriculum is to teach trainees to be life-long learners, to be adept in the self-directed learning process with appropriate support and coaching from faculty. We expect trainees to be able to be self-driven in learning medical content and literature. The emphasis is not on didactic classroom teaching, but on how to maximize learning at every bedside and patient encounter, learning from our entire interdisciplinary team, applying medical knowledge to the clinical expertise shared by teachers.
