Three pillars enable FMRAC to achieve this mission as proactively and creatively as possible.

    1. Enable communities of practice for the medical regulatory authorities
    2. Undertake strategic engagement and advocacy at the national level
    3. Support innovation in medical regulation

Core Activities:

Four areas were deemed to be core activities of the organization.

  1. advocacy and common voice – where FMRAC stands publicly and speaks on behalf of the medical regulatory authorities of Canada
    • at the federal level
    • with the members, the public and the media – promote pan-Canadian standards, even if they are aspirational, especially when members can use them in discussion with their own governments
    • with other national organizations – promote the notion of public interest regulation
  2. surveillance of political developments and trends that may have an impact on the work of the Members in fulfilling their mandate
  3. FMRAC Integrated Risk Management System (FIRMS)
  4. Model Standards for Medical Registration in Canada
