Developed by family physicians, the Self Learning Program™ has been providing continuing education for over 50 years. Whether you’re a family physician, nurse practitioner, or physician assistant, this program provides valuable learning opportunities for all primary care professionals. Available in both digital and print formats, you can choose how and when you want to learn.
With new volumes released 6 times a year, the Self Learning Program can help you earn up to 30 Mainpro+ credits annually covering your entire CPD cycle!
Each volume contains multiple-choice, true/false questions and short answer management problems (SAMPs) that explore clinical scenarios you encounter in every day practice in great depth. Plus, Choosing Wisely Canada (CWC) is now reviewing and endorsing Self Learning questions, which means you get the added assurance that our questions are in line with CWC’s recommendations.
Learning on your own time means there are no time limits to complete the questions, enabling you to earn your credits at your own pace.
