About us
At the Medical Council of Canada (MCC), we strive to achieve the highest level of medical care for Canadians through excellence in the assessment of physicians. We assess over 11,000 medical students and graduates every year through our examinations, offered in both official languages in Canada and in 80 other countries. Our ongoing support for research and development ensures that we remain at the forefront of innovation in medical assessment.
