Everything we do focuses on ensuring a high standard of medical care for patients in Canada. We validate and store medical credentials from around the world, deliver assessments to assist medical graduates on their pathway to licensure, and give medical regulators confidence to make licensing decisions based on candidate results from our examinations.
