To be eligible to apply to the CAF, you must:

• For the Paid Education programs, you can be 16 years old (with parental consent)

Direct Entry Plan

If you already have a Bachelor of Science (Pharmacy) or a PharmD degree from a recognized Canadian university, have passed the Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada’s Qualifying Exam, hold a current licence to practise client-based pharmacy in a Canadian province or territory, and are in the possession of a Letter of Good Standing from your professional regulatory authority, the CAF may place you directly into the required on-the-job training program following basic training. Because this on-the-job training leads directly to an intensive 6-month clinical residency, it is also necessary that all candidates (except for very recent graduates) possess—or seek out—clinical experience in a tertiary care facility as delineated in the entry standard prior to applying to the CAF. Basic training and military officer qualification training (of which this clinical residency are part) are both required before being assigned.
