Continuing Education
Sinai Health is committed to fostering a culture of continuous learning and growth in which everyone, regardless of their role, has the opportunity to be a learner.
We are dedicated to ongoing education to ensure that our people, learners and, ultimately, our patients benefit from fresh perspectives and knowledge transfer.
Our people in both clinical and non-clinical roles have access to a wide range of learning opportunities, including rounds, conferences, teleconferences, workshops, courses, seminars, lectures and e-learning modules.
In a typical year, Sinai Health physicians organize and participate in about 50 local, national and international workshops and conferences, sharing new knowledge with other clinicians and researchers.
The following are our upcoming continuing education opportunities.
Course and lecture series
The following courses are offered through the SimSinai Centre.

The Annual Pritzker Day
The Annual Priztker Day is one of Toronto's most distinguished pathology lectures, delivered each spring (May/June) by celebrated names in the field.
First delivered in 1965, it was created by colleagues in memory of Harold Goldsmith Pritzker, Pathologist-in-Chief at Mount Sinai Hospital from 1938 to 1963. It was renamed "The Annual Pritzker Day" in 2009 to acknowledge the contribution of Harold's son, Kenneth Pritzker, who was Pathologist-in-Chief for 22 years before stepping down in July 2008.
