Canadian Ethics Fellowship Supervisors Community of Practice (CEFSCoP)

We are a group of individuals who lead healthcare ethics fellowship programs across Canada. Fellowships are a key element in the formation of healthcare ethics practitioners and our Community of Practice contributes to the professionalization of our field by defining shared expectations of how the next generation of Practising Healthcare Ethicists are supported to understand the role and practice within it.

Our aims include:

  • Developing common frameworks, tools, and curricula for Healthcare Ethics Fellows across Canada;

  • Aligning Ethics Fellowship training standards with emerging international professionalization efforts;
