MCC 360 is moving to CPSA—what does this mean for you?

Read time: 2 minutes

Since 2017, the Medical Council of Canada (MCC) has offered MCC 360 to individual physicians and healthcare organizations across Canada as a professional development opportunity. Many physicians practising in Alberta have participated in this program as a way to grow their practice and meet the personal development requirement of the Physician Practice Improvement Program (PPIP).

A new home

The MCC will discontinue offering MCC 360 as of Nov. 1, 2025. CPSA has acquired this program so we can continue to make multi-source feedback available to regulated members in Alberta. CPSA’s program, renamed MSF360*, will launch in 2026—stay tuned to future issues of The Messenger for more details.

Enrolled in MCC 360? What you need to know

The MCC 360 surveys will go offline on Oct. 20, 2025. The MCC will then produce their reports using the feedback collected to date and provide these to CPSA’s PPIP team. We will organize your facilitation and proceed with closing your file.

Self-assessment data is required to produce your MCC report so this must be completed before Oct. 20, 2025. Otherwise, the MCC will not be able to generate your report and you may be re-initiated into the program in 2026 once it’s been re-launched by CPSA. If you’ve been selected for the program but haven’t started yet, your participation will be deferred to 2026.

Personal development

CPSA’s MSF360 will continue to meet the requirements of PPIP’s personal development activity, offering physicians the opportunity to self-reflect on their practice and improve communication and collaboration skills to the benefit of patients. We’re looking forward to sharing more in the new year!

If you have questions for the MCC, please email communications@mcc.ca. If you have any questions for CPSA, please contact us at ppip@cpsa.ab.ca.

*In the email that went out for this issue of The Messenger, the new program name was incorrectly listed as MSF260. We apologize for the error and look forward launching MSF360 soon!
