Welcome to Practice Ontario at UofT
Since 2005, our resident exit surveys consistently show
that insufficient attention is given to career planning during
residency. In response, the PGME Office began last
year to work with HealthForceOntario to respond to this
need and have entered into a partnership called Practice
Ontario at UofT.
This service puts residents in touch with a personal career
advisor, who will work with our residents to explore practice
openings in Ontario, both permanent and locum.
The advisor can help with CV preparation, mock interviews,
arrange community visits, offer suggestions on
spousal employment and much more.

Practice Ontario is a free and flexible service. The career
advisor is situated at the PGME Office at 500 University
Avenue one day per week, but consultations can also be
arranged at the resident's hospital/training site, or by
phone. This service and advice is not limited to senior
or soon-to-be-exiting residents - junior residents are also
invited to establish contact with an advisor and stay in
touch through his/her residency. Contact details are:
Tel: 416-945-3697
