This call includes inviting applications for the 2025 Indigenous Stream of the Clinical Educator Fellowship Program, following a successful, inaugural round of applications for our 2024 cohort. With support of an advisory group, fellows within the Indigenous Stream will help create a vision of an Indigenous approach to educational leadership and work alongside our first cohort of fellows in the Indigenous Stream, Drs. Chelsea Monell and Janelle Syring.
The trainees and graduates from the MHPE and CEFP programs are innovative thinkers and leaders, with a vision for promoting health through education scholarship. Our alumni stand out as health education leaders across the province, and across the country. Have a look at where our alumni are now and how our CHES educational programs impacted them, in a collection of testimonials from our CHES alumni.
