Do PPIP activities qualify for continuing professional development (CPD) credits?

Certain competence programs which also meet the requirements of a PPIP activity do qualify for CPD credits:

• A Group Practice Review (GPR) meets the requirements of PPIP’s standards of practice quality improvement activity. General practitioners and family physicians who participate in GPR are eligible for 13.5 Mainpro+ credits through the College of Family Physicians of Canada, while specialists may be eligible for Maintenance of Certification (MOC) credits through the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada.
• The Medical Council of Canada’s MCC 360 meets the requirements of PPIP’s personal development activity. General practitioners and family physicians who participate in MCC 360 are eligible for Mainpro+ credits through the College of Family Physicians of Canada, while specialists may be eligible for Maintenance of Certification (MOC) credits through the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada.

To find out if any other work you’ve done as part of a PPIP activity qualifies for CPD credits, please reach out to your national college.
