About CACE

The Centre for Ambulatory Care Education (CACE) is an extra-departmental unit shared between Women’s College Hospital and the faculty of medicine at the University of Toronto. It also maintains strong links with the other Toronto Academic Health Science Network (TAHSN) hospital sites.

The CACE objectives are:

1. Develop, evaluate, implement and disseminate quality models of education for ambulatory care and quality indicators for ambulatory care teaching.
2. Provide an environment that fosters innovation in ambulatory care teaching and learning including technology and informatics.
3. Promote educational scholarship and research in the area of ambulatory care teaching and learning both locally and globally.

Successfully implementing the CACE objectives will lead to improved patient care as well as the strengthening of interprofessional medical education.

CACE activities include a fellowship program focused on ambulatory care education research, programs of research led by CACE Scientists, an educational mentorship program for educational researchers, workshops in best practices in ambulatory care, CACE rounds and consulting.
