Hi Team,
Yesterday I had a team meeting with the MCC executives and today with the Fairness Commissioner of Ontario Mr. Irwin Glasberg and his team regarding the Practice Ready Assessment protocol in Ontario for IMGs to make the process streamlined and IMG-friendly.
We are trying to remove the roadblock for eligible IMG to return to profession; the recency issue was highlighted in the meeting; and the Quebec CEDIS model was also focused in the meeting.
The meeting outcomes are positive. As a next step we are going to meet the ministry and other stakeholders soon.
If you have any suggestion to support the process, please write to me.
Regards,
Akm

Hi All,
Unfortunately, there was a spam from someone in the system. That member has been removed from the portal. Aysha worked very hard to keep these stuff running. Right now, we don't have a dedicated coordinator for maintaining this site. We're planning to get someone after the COVID-19 crisis is over.
If you find any issue, please forward it to the email research@accessalliance.ca. My good colleague, Miranda Saroli, will try to support you as much as she can.
We've a more robust plan with this network, connecting it to a settlement agenda.
Your support is important for us.
Best regards,
Akm
Hi Christopher,
