Clinical Webinar Series

Webinars offer a convenient way to stay current and informed without taking time out for travel. And since most of our live webinars take place at 8 pm, you will not have to lose any of your workdays. As a Nova Scotian physician, you'll benefit from an annual series of live, one-hour, Mainpro+ accredited programs. These sessions are interactive and allow you to ask experts about a variety of highly relevant topics.

If you miss a webinar that interests you, it's easy to catch up. As long as the facilitator gives permission, you'll find recordings of the presentations posted below for two months after the event.

On occasion, we use webinars to pass on important messages from the Department of Health and Wellness such as H1N1, C. Difficile Colitis, and Lyme disease.

We gratefully acknowledge the financial support from the Nova Scotia Department of Health and Wellness for our webinar series.

Stay Informed

Our Webinar season is September to June. We are excited to bring many important topics to you in our upcoming season. The dates and topics will be listed below as they are booked. We will update this list as we fill in more dates.

If you would like to receive weekly reminders for our accredited events for physicians, or have your attendance at our events tracked, please complete and submit the Contact Data Form. Be sure to check “Yes” to “I agree to receive email announcements” to get your name on our e-blast list!

Receiving Credits

To receive Mainpro+ Credits, which you can then claim from the CFPC, you must complete the survey distributed at each Webinar. The survey will be open for one week after the session.
