Canadian MAiD Curriculum

CAMAP is excited to offer Canadian MAiD Curriculum (CMC) pre-conference sessions at the 2026 CAMAP Conference, welcoming not only clinicians but also the broader interdisciplinary health-care team involved in MAiD care.

These interactive, half-day workshops, led by CMC faculty, provide a collaborative space to explore key aspects of MAiD care through real-world, case-based learning.

These half-day, case-based accredited workshops are led by experienced CMC faculty and focus on key areas of MAiD care. Sessions are offered in English and French at a subsidized rate.
