This Canadian MAiD Curriculum features eight individual topics developed by working groups made up of MAiD subject-matter experts representing diverse geography and disciplines. This modular curriculum aims to educate new MAiD practitioners, advance the skills of existing MAiD practitioners, and help standardize the approach to care by supporting those who deliver MAiD care coast to coast.
All topics are offered via online learning modules in both English or French. If you are already a CAMAP member, please click here to visit the Member Topic Area. You will be asked to login using your CAMAP account. Once you do, please select MAiD Curriculum from the main menu.
If you are not currently a CAMAP member, your purchase of any Topic from Topics 3–7 includes a complimentary yearly CAMAP membership, giving you access to additional resources, community forums, guidance documents, and member benefits beyond the CMC. All membership applications are vetted and require approval.
The CMC is structured around 8 topic areas.
Topics 1 and 2 are online self-study modules and are open to everyone. Whether you are a healthcare professional, student, policy maker, administrator, or simply someone interested in learning more about MAiD in Canada, you are welcome to participate.
Topics 3–7 are facilitated, case-based discussion sessions with online pre-learning module(s). These topics are open to regulated clinicians and healthcare professionals who meet specific eligibility criteria. Please refer to eligibility requirements for detailed information.
Topic 8 is woven throughout Topics 1–7 and delivered as a handbook resource to support professional well-being and resilience in MAiD practice.
Within each topic, learners gain access to thoughtfully curated tools, resources, and case studies to support both their learning journey and real-world MAiD practice.
The curriculum offers a comprehensive total of 27 credits for the College of Family Physicians of Canada (CFPC), 27 hours of self-assessment for the RCPSC, and 27 CNA accredited hours for nurses.
