Please note that Québec health institutions have been operating under the name Santé Québec since June 15, 2026.
Some pages published before that date may still contain the former CISSS and CIUSSS designations.

For the CRIR students

 

Stand out from applicants and excel in your career as a SMRTS Professional.

The SMRTS Professional Development Recognition Program is a customizable training opportunity that offers a micro credential certificate for participants who complete 6 hours of independent learning on topics spanning communication, project management, social media, budgeting, EDIA and more!

What’s the commitment?  

  • Watch 6 pre-recorded webinars at your own pace, either from different categories, or focused on a single theme to receive specialized recognition.  
  • After watching 6 hours of content, to receive your certificate and badge, you’ll submit one written summary (500 words max), providing key takeaways from each seminar.  
  • Post a testimonial on LinkedIn, Twitter or another social media platform to show off your micro-credential badge and certificate. Be sure to tag SMRTs organizations, so we can share with our networks! 

This is a no-cost program open to all, with no deadlines for completion. Certificates and badges will be issued on a quarterly basis.
