Public Consultation on Proposed Learning Requirements for Selected High-Risk Expanded Scope Activities

The College is seeking input on proposed learning requirements for selected high-risk expanded scope of practice activities, including assessing and prescribing for acute pharyngitis, otitis externa and herpes zoster, and the administration of injectable buprenorphine extended-release (Sublocade®). These proposed scope activities, which have not yet received approval from government, may pose a higher risk to the public if not managed appropriately.

Registrants, members of the public, and system partners are invited to share their feedback on this open consultation by May 31, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. EST. 
 
Further details on the consultation, including how to share your feedback, are posted on our website
