Is the Knowledge Assessment mandatory to complete?

Yes, the Knowledge Assessment is a required component of the College’s Quality Assurance Program for all Part A pharmacists.

A Quality Assurance Program is required in statute for all healthcare regulators in Ontario under the Regulated Health Professions Act. The purpose of the Quality Assurance Program is not only to assure the public that healthcare professionals are competent to provide patient care, but also to contribute to individual and system-wide continuous quality improvement.

All Part A pharmacists are required to complete the Knowledge Assessment when selected.
