Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada

The Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada established the specialty of occupational medicine some 30 years ago. Occupational Medicine is a sub-speciality of Internal Medicine, and training is done through internal medicine with application to Occupational Medical training programs during the internal medicine training as with any other internal medicine sub-speciality. Both the University of Alberta and the University of Toronto offer residency programs. Graduates become Fellows of the Royal College of Physicians of Canada (FRCPC). The Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons in each province or territory determines whether physicians will be recognized as Specialists; the FRCPC (Occ Med) is the usual requirement for recognition as a Specialist in Occupational Medicine.
