What is PQI Level 2 Training?
Supported by the Specialist Services Committee's Physician Quality Improvement (PQI) initiative, the PQI Level 2 workshop provides physicians with hands-on opportunities to build fundamental QI skills that can be applied to practice settings.
This training focuses on creating QI capacity, connecting with colleagues, and contributing to a culture of QI in our health system. The PQI curriculum was specifically designed by physicians, for physicians to give you tools you can apply in real time.
How to get involved
All BC physicians are eligible for the PQI Level 2 workshop. Sessional funding is provided, and limited travel support may be available.
Join the Provincial Physician Quality Improvement Level 2 Workshop waitlist to secure your spot for our next workshop. We will notify you as soon as registration opens.
