INTERNATIONALLY TRAINED
MEDICAL LABORATORY
SCIENTISTS/TECHNOLOGISTS/TECHNICIANS
DLMC provides rapid, practical, relevant and easy to understand advice
to internationally trained scientists or technologist or technicians wishing
to practice within the profession in Canada. A current and key industry
trend is the growing shortage of medical laboratory professionals in Canada
and the USA. It is predicted, that in the next 10 years, approximately
50% of the current workforce can be expected to retire. The number
of new graduates entering the lab profession is not keeping pace with
the numbers that are exiting or with growth of the aging population or
the current demands of clinical services. Recruitment of internationally
trained professionals within Canada and the USA is a forward thinking
solution that is gaining momentum and attracting significant attention
in order to address professional personnel shortages in medical laboratories.
