FPM training fees and flexible training options
Find information about flexible training options and fees for the FPM training program.
Flexible training
With prior approval from the faculty and with the support of your head of department and the respective hospital administration, flexible (part-time and/or interrupted training) is possible under specific circumstances. Application is made via the specific form in the FPM training program ePortfolio.
With the exception of recognition of prior experience, all applications for flexible training must be submitted prospectively. A reduced training fee may apply, as outlined in by-law 4.11.
Full-time equivalent (FTE) for part-time training is calculated pro-rata based on 38 hours per week maximum.
Fees
Annual training fees are due on 31 January, 2023. Non-payment of an annual training fee or registration maintenance fee by 28 February, 2023 will result in a trainee being put into interrupted training and status changed to "Not Financial".
Non-payment of an annual training fee or registration maintenance fee by 31 March, 2023 will result in a trainee being withdrawn from the training program.
