Clinical fellows play a significant role in our healthcare system, and the University of Toronto is a leading institution in the training of clinical fellows. According to the most recent data of the Canadian Post MD Education Registry (CAPER), nearly 70% of all the clinical fellows in Ontario and nearly 50% of all the clinical fellows in Canada are registered at the University of Toronto. This share of the total provincial and national clinical fellowship enrolment has belonged to the University of Toronto since 2007.

Clinical fellowship education involves the participation of numerous, and varied, stakeholders. The Role of the University in Clinical Fellowship Education has been prepared to ensure the widest possible understanding of the University of Toronto’s role in the advanced postgraduate medical training of these doctors.
