The CAPER data tables are now available on the CAPER website www.caper.ca.

The familiar CAPER Annual Census of Post-M.D. Trainees will no longer be available as a book. Be sure to use the website to access the information you need. The CAPER Annual Census of Post-M.D. Trainees, the CAPER Provincial Reports, and the CAPER Individual Specialty Tables can now be found at www.caper.ca

The CAPER database has been designed to serve as an information resource for physician workforce planning on a national and provincial or regional basis in Canada. Information is held in an individual longitudinal format to permit the study of the flow of trainees through the post-M.D. training system. Although information permitting the identification of individuals is not released from CAPER, group data tabulations and statistics will be prepared in response to requests. Preparation will be on a cost-recovery basis.

Data requests made to CAPER are welcome.
