COURSE GOALS & OBJECTIVES
The two side-by-side mountains – Blackcomb and Whistler – offer the greatest vertical rise in North America, more
than 6,900 acres of skiable terrain suitable for every competence level, receiving over 30 feet snow per season, and
the most extensive highspeed lift system in the world. Your
daily pass gives you access to both mountains with over
200 runs and 4000 vertical feet of trails. All services from
restaurants to repairs are right on the mountains.
Improve your skills in identification, assessment, and treatment of patients with a number of common, yet potentially challenging problems in adult and pediatric Emergency Medicine.

Callaghan Valley has 25km of recreational trails, and 15km
of competition trails with an extensive menu of public programs. http://whistlerolympicpark.com

Medical Association (AMA) recognizes for the purpose of
allowing Canadian medical schools the ability to accredit
activities for AMA PRA Category 1. As a result of a reciprocal
agreement between the AMA and the European Accreditation Council for CME (EACCME), this agreement permits
CEPD to assign EACCME credits.
