Planetary health courses are now available!
We’re excited to share that the Centralized Educational Programming team at PGME has developed two new courses on Planetary Health for Cumming School of Medicine students, residents, faculty, and staff. Students and residents from all disciplines at CSM will be introduced to this timely and impactful topic, and this offers a great opportunity for faculty and staff to strengthen and refresh their knowledge alongside them.
We warmly encourage you to take part in this shared learning experience and engage with an area that is becoming increasingly central to health care education and practice.
Who can access the courses?:
Residents, fellows, Faculty and staff with UCalgary credentials.
