Practice Ready Assessment - British Columbia

(PRA-BC)

In 2015, the province of British Columbia launched an assessment program for internationally trained family physicians who have completed residencies in Family Medicine outside of Canada. This program, known as Practice Ready Assessment – British Columbia (PRA-BC), provides qualified family physicians with an alternative pathway to licensure in BC.

As a program, PRA-BC has assessed 243 family physicians since 2015. These family physicians were placed in 68 communities throughout BC.
