WHAT IS A SUB-REGIONAL TRAINING? According to the international regulations of the IFMSA Capacity Building division, a SubRegional Training (SRT) is an event of a few days in duration open to all members of IFMSA worldwide and containing at least two streams of training given simultaneously. Each stream aims to equip and motivate medical students to become socially involved and informed about subjects that are not always covered by university medical education. A SRT mainly consists of presentations, workshops and small working groups on topics included in the main theme of each stream. A partnership with external organizations is also sometimes established to enhance the program of activities.
IFMSA-QUÉBEC’S SRT2017 The SRT2017 presented by IFMSA-QUEBEC will take place from the 19th to the 17th of February 2017 in the beautiful city of Québec. Canadian and foreign medical students are invited to take part in the SRT as trainers or participants. The 3 days of training will be split into 2 streams given simultaneously: Stream #1: Leadership and Project Management Stream #2: Health Care in Danger Note: The official themes and names of the streams will be confirmed shortly.
