Education Day is BCPA’s annual professional development event, bringing together psychiatrists from across British Columbia for a full day of learning, discussion, and connection.
The program features expert-led sessions on clinical best practices, policy updates, and innovations in mental health care.
It’s also an opportunity to earn CME credits, engage with colleagues, and stay at the forefront of psychiatric practice.
