Within Ontario Outside of Ontario
MBCPM™ Courses are being offered at various sites in Ontario, run by trained facilitators using the same curriculum and course materials. The usual format is once a week (2.5 to 3 hours) for 12 to 13 weeks, but other formats have been offered: 4 to 5 day courses; alternate weekend courses: all day Saturday, half day Sunday, for 3 alternate weekends; and, for the more well workforce: once a week, full day, for 3 consecutive weeks. Some of the facilitators below are offering the courses (Levels 1 to 3) via telemedicine to distant sites across Ontario, as well as locally. Contact information to find out costs and to enrol in these courses for 2016 is listed in the table below. A generic MBCPM referral form is provided (click on link) but customized referral forms may be provided on facilitators’ own websites.
