At its February 2021 meeting, the Board approved the Framework on Fast-tracked Licensure.

The Framework proposes recommendations and minimum regulatory standards to FMRAC’s members. It is intended to help inform the development of the medical regulatory authorities’ approach to fast-tracked licensure and promote pan-Canadian consistency. It is incumbent on each medical regulatory authority to develop policy and approaches to ensure effective regulation. The implementation and timing will be determined by each medical regulatory authority.

Special thanks are extended to the members of the Working Group on Streamlined Registration and the Registration Working Group.
