The CRA hosts several resident programs exclusively for Canadian rheumatology residents to enhance learning and offer a collegial forum for residents to connect with their peers and program directors from across the country. The CRA, in collaboration with training programs across the country, is administering the National Written Rheumatology In-Training Exam (NWRITE) the week of October 13-16 2026.

CRA NWRITE & pNWRITE 

October 13-16, 2026 (date/time varies by program)

This is a formative examination delivered to rheumatology residents annually to help prepare for the Royal College examination. New this year: the pNWRITE, an in-training exam designed exclusively for pediatric trainees. 

This is a closed book exam, no reference materials are permitted.  The exam will be administered online, please bring a laptop computer (and charger) to the exam (exam date, time, and room to be assigned by your Program Director).  

In order to write the NWRITE, it is imperative to register no later than October 9, 2026.
