The future of our initiatives will be sustained by the next generation of investigators, clinicians, and healthcare professionals. We formed the CANet HQP Association for Trainees (CHAT) to nurture new professionals in public and private research through the development of Highly Qualified Personnel (HQP).
CHAT provides its members valuable resources and opportunities to network with like-minded colleagues, and participate in events and competitions across Canada that help strengthen their research and career development.
To date, CHAT has conducted 187 courses and workshops, trained 5,214 HQP, and launched 135 new careers in the public and private sector workplace. There have also been 141 job promotions received for Allied Health Research Professionals.
To learn more about CHAT and our members, click here.
Our unique partnerships create the ideal environment for scientific and clinical advances, knowledge translation, and business opportunities.
We have generated over $50M in partner matching funds. We continue to build partnerships that advance CANet’s mission of using our internationally recognized research groups to attract key stakeholders, work with patients and other communities to generate new knowledge, novel technologies, and key health strategies that will help identify and treat patients at risk.
