Workshop content is based on current literature, research evidence and recommendations from various professional associations. While workshops describe current standards of care, they are not intended to dictate exclusive courses of practice: rather, they provide a foundation and direction for perinatal care. Variations and innovations that improve the quality of patient care are encouraged.

A written acknowledgement of attendance will be issued to participants. These certificates of attendance are not to be used as proof of “certification” as CMNRP is not an official certification body.

In most workshops, participants complete a knowledge test so that they can receive immediate feedback on their learning. For confidentiality purposes, the marks are given directly to participants. Therefore, if the marks are required for follow-up or performance appraisals, managers should consult the individual participants. CMNRP isnot responsible for the participants’ performance either during or following the programs, or for implementing remedial work. However, we are willing to consult with institutions to assist in that process.
