PEAP and AVP in POWER

The requirement for all IMGs to have an Pre-Entry Assessment, in advance of being granted a Postgraduate Education license for either residency or fellowship, is a requirement of the CPSO.  In Ontario, the Pre-Entry Assessment takes two forms: a PEAP for international residents and fellows, or an Assessment Verification Period (AVP) for IMGs matched to residency positions through CaRMS.  Both the PEAP and the AVP are intended to meet the registration regulation requirements of the CPSO. Please refer to PEAP and AVP in POWER for more details.

Annual Evaluation Summary Report

The Annual Evaluation Summary report was modified in August 2019.  It is now called the Trainee Assessment Summary report (TAS).  Please refer to the November 2019 POWER Newsletter for details.

Alert Notification Process

Evaluations, that meet conditions placed on them by the program, are placed in the Alerts Notification report.  A process is required to be followed by the programs who receive alerts notifications from the POWER system.  Please refer to the November 2019 POWER Newsletter for details.
