Program Description

The Career Transitions for International Medical Doctors (IMD) program provides sector-specific employment preparation and counseling services and employer outreach specific to internationally trained physicians. These services assist IMDs in accessing alternative employment in the health sector that makes effective use of their skills. 

Sector-specific Employment Preparation Program

The program provides information that helps IMDs become aware of their options for alternative employment in the health care sector. In this way they are better able to make timely decisions about career direction and to create realistic action plans for employment goals.

Counseling Services

Counsellors provide one-on-one counseling to International medical Doctors to assist them in refining their portfolio and in developing their individual career action plans.

Employer Outreach

The project partners have contacted health sector employers in Ottawa, Toronto and Hamilton and are working with them to find employment exposure opportunities in the workplace. Working together, the project partners and employers are exploring possibilities for full- and part-time positions, co-op placements, volunteering and mentoring.
