Continuing Education

We promote ongoing learning for our people through a variety of opportunities.

Sinai Health is committed to fostering a culture of continuous learning and growth in which everyone, regardless of their role, has the opportunity to be a learner.

We are dedicated to ongoing education to ensure that our staff, learners and, ultimately, our patients benefit from fresh perspectives and knowledge transfer.

Our people in both clinical and non-clinical roles have access to a variety of learning opportunities, including rounds, conferences, teleconferences, workshops, courses, seminars, lectures and e-learning modules.

In a typical year, Sinai Health physicians organize more than 50 local, national and international workshops and conferences geared at sharing new knowledge with other clinicians.

The following are our upcoming continuing education opportunities.
