The College of Family Physicians of Canada (CFPC) has a reciprocal credit reporting agreement with the following partner organizations:

 

Collège des médecins du Québec

The Collège des médecins du Québec accredits continuing professional development (CPD) organizations in the province of Quebec that wish to grant CPD credits. Mainpro+ users can claim an unlimited amount of Quebec Category 1 credits as certified credits in the Mainpro+ system. Quebec Category 1 credits can be claimed in all three Mainpro+ activity categories:
  • Group Learning
  • Self-Learning
  • Assessment

American Academy of Family Physicians

The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) is the accrediting body for family medicine CPD/continuing medical education (CME) in the United States.

Prescribed credits can be claimed as the equivalent number of certified credits, and Elective credits can be claimed as the equivalent number of non-certified credits.

Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP)

  • RACGP Category 1 activity hours will be accepted as Mainpro+ certified credits:
    • The CFPC will accept one credit per hour for all RACGP Category 1 activities.
    • Please note: Basic life-support courses such as BLS or CPR are not eligible for Mainpro+ certified credits.
