Program overview
It is important to note that beginning in the second year of the program you will be required to be on-call during your practicum experiences and that this requires full-time commitment. In order to serve all of Alberta, we use all placements and you will be required to practice at a variety of placement sites. This may mean traveling and living outside of the city.
In the last two years of your program, you will have the opportunity to work directly with practicing midwives to enrich your education while developing and refining your midwifery skills, under the instruction and supervision of your Mount Royal faculty. Clinical placement may take you to a geographically remote area in Alberta, or across Canada. Your final year features a clerkship, enabling you to fully integrate your knowledge and skills to prepare you for professional practice.

Labour and birth care is offered to families – in either hospitals, birth centres, homes or collaboratively in primary care networks. You may want to work throughout Alberta, across Canada or internationally on successful completion of the program and registration exam.
