Current guidance
Public Health Ontario's current IPAC for Health Care Workers course contains one overview module, three core modules, and at least one setting-specific module. A certificate is available after completing those modules and scoring at least 80% on the final graded quiz. The course is intended for health care workers across settings and replaced the previous Core Competencies course.
Your program may name a particular setting module or continue to accept a previous certificate. Confirm before repeating training.
CareCard validity
CareCard's current catalogue default keeps the certificate without an expiry date. A program may require a current course version, a particular module, or refresher training. The assigned requirement controls.
