Canadian Pharmacy Residency Board

Who We Are

The Canadian Pharmacy Residency Board (CPRB) establishes standards and conducts accreditation surveys of pharmacy residency training programs in Canada. It is a semi-autonomous body of the Canadian Society of Hospital Pharmacists and has independence in conducting accreditation surveys, issuing accreditation awards, establishing policies and procedures that support accreditation processes, and developing or promoting education and research initiatives related to residency programs and residency training.

The CPRB consists of a Vice-Chair, Chair, and Past-Chair, and a minimum of four additional members. All CPRB members must be CSHP members. The Vice-Chair, Chair, and CPRB members are appointed and reappointed annually by the CSHP Board. The work of CPRB is assisted by sub-groups made up of CPRB members and other members of CSHP. In sharing their expertise, the sub-groups reduce the time and work demands on board members. If you are interested in volunteering for one of these sub-groups, please e-mail the CPRB Coordinator at cprb@cshp.ca.
