TST EMBEDDED COURSE
Most CPE units will have the opportunity for the resident to enrol in an academic course at the
university. This course will complete the requirements for the degree, or CASC certification, or
contribute to the resident’s identified learning goals.

DIRECTED READING
In cases where a resident does not enrol in an academic course, they will be expected to do
reading in relation to their learning goals. You may consult with your supervisor regarding a
directed reading program. Your supervisor may ask you to submit
a written reflection on an area of interest. This part of the program is usually negotiated with
your supervisor.
