- prescribes the requirements for specialty education in 60 areas of medical, surgical and laboratory medicine
- accredits specialty residency programs
- assesses the acceptability of residents' education
- conducts certifying examinations
- assures a high standard of specialist care through its Maintenance of Certification Program

The FRCPC designation means you can be assured that your dermatologist has received the training necessary to properly diagnose and treat your skin, hair, or nail disease or condition.
