3 months ago


Calgary, Canada The University of Calgary Full time

**Position Overview**

The Physician Learning Program (PLP) is an innovative and unique Alberta program that was established in 2009 as a conjoint University of Alberta/Calgary program in order that Alberta physicians can (1) obtain, reflect upon and use individualized practice based information in order to self-assess and improve clinical work through access to clinical data from health services databases (e.g., patient and billing sources) and (2) identify and access learning activities and resources to support learning in areas identified by the practice assessment. The PLP integrates research and evidence-based best practice to support quality improvement projects to improve the care delivered to patients.

The PLP office in Calgary has between 25-35 active projects and a team of 10-15 staff comprised of both internal and external staff (contractors and secured resources from Alberta Health Services).

The service hours of the office are Monday - Friday, 7 hours per day, 8:30am - 4:30pm.
