Application Process:

  • The Resident creates a profile and applies online through the portal.
  • An automatic email is sent to the Resident’s Supervising Physician (Credentialing, PIC, Supervising Housestaff) once the online application is complete. It is important that the Resident provides the correct contact information of the Supervising Physician. In the case where more than one physician will be supervising, a main contact (Most Responsible Physician) is necessary.
  • Upon successful confirmation by the Supervising Physician, the application is automatically forwarded to the Program Director.
  • Upon successful review by the Program Director, the application is automatically forwarded to the PG Dean for approval.
  • The application is then handled by the Restricted Registration office and sent to the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO). The application is prepared by the CPSO for the next available Registration Committee meeting. The Resident will be asked to complete additional forms and documentation.
  • The CPSO informs the Resident of the Committee decision, and issues a Restricted Certificate for the period of work outside postgraduate training. Please note, you may not begin practice until you have received confirmation from the College that you are registered.

*There are no appeals to this process. The Program Directors, PG Deans and Registration Committee at CPSO all have the right to refuse or withdraw a Resident’s participation in this program at any time.
**The onus is on the Resident to contact the Canadian Medical Protective Association (CMPA) to request that their coverage be changed to TOW Code 14. There is no additional fee, and you may do this at any time. However, you MUST have proof of this change in status by the time you begin your Restricted Registration activity.
