Call for Interest&nbsp;Course Content Development, Review, and Clinical Review&nbsp;1.&nbsp;Background&nbsp;The Canadian Association of Midwives/Association canadienne des sages-femmes (CAM/ACSF) is seeking proposals from qualified consultants to support the development (1), adaptation (2), and review (3) of online learning courses. All finalized online learning courses will be delivered through CAM’s bilingual Learning Management System (LMS), CAM Learns / ACSF Apprend.&nbsp;CAM Learns/ACSF Apprend Link<a href="https://camlearns.canadianmidwives.org/#/public-dashboard" target="_blank">:&nbsp;Public Dashboard | Canadian Association of Midwives&nbsp;</a>Candidates may apply to one or multiple service areas outlined in this Call for Interest. Applications may be submitted individually or as a collaborative team (e.g., a content developer working jointly with a clinical reviewer, or a course updater paired with a reviewer).&nbsp;2.&nbsp;Organizational Background&nbsp;CAM /ACSF is the national professional association representing midwives and the profession of midwifery in Canada. Our work is focused on ensuring more equitable access to high quality sexual, reproductive, and newborn midwifery services in Canada and globally. To achieve this, we work in close partnership with the National Council of Indigenous Midwives (NCIM), midwifery associations, midwives, and relevant stakeholders. Our programming is funded by Government of Canada departments and agencies (i.e. Health Canada, Global Affairs Canada), private donors and UN agencies, and operational funding.&nbsp;In 2024, CAM /ACSF officially launched CAM Learns/ACSF Apprend, a new bilingual online learning platform designed to support the professional development needs of midwives and other health care workers. Over the course of 2024-2025, CAM Learns introduced 14 new courses in both French and English, covering a range of topics tailored to the needs of midwives at various stages of their careers. Courses cover key topics such as Indigenous cultural safety and humility, anti-racism training, and educating families on RSV, among other topics. Each course has been developed in collaboration with midwifery experts, ensuring relevant, accessible, and evidence-based content.&nbsp;3.&nbsp;Project Background&nbsp;CAM /ACSF has recently launched a new initiative, funded through the Sexual and Reproductive Health Fund (SRHF), aimed at advancing reproductive health equity in Canada. This project seeks to reduce barriers to sexual and reproductive healthcare for underserved communities, including Indigenous, Black, and racialized people, immigrant populations, 2SLGBTQIA+ clients, and women and youth in rural and remote areas. Persistent gaps in culturally safe, appropriate, and timely information and services continue to contribute to inequitable access to sexual and reproductive health care across the country.&nbsp;Through this initiative, CAM will strengthen the role of midwives in addressing these gaps by developing continuing professional development opportunities on CAM Learns / ACSF Apprend. In addition, CAM will produce culturally relevant tools and public awareness resources focused on contraception and abortion care; fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum care; equity and cultural safety; and gender-inclusive care.&nbsp;These efforts aim to ensure that midwives and other health care professionals have access to high-quality, evidence-based, and inclusive educational resources, supporting their ability to provide equitable care for all communities.&nbsp;4.&nbsp;Objectives &amp; Scope of work&nbsp;4.1.&nbsp;Objective&nbsp;The objective of this consultancy is to support CAM /ACSF in developing, updating, and reviewing highquality online learning products for midwives and other health care professionals, hosted on CAM Learns / ACSF Apprend:&nbsp;<ol><li>Content development of new online learning courses, either as micro-lessons or long-form courses. </li><li>Content revision and content enhancement of existing online courses. </li><li>Clinical content review of the new and revised online courses.&nbsp;</li></ol>Newly developed courses will focus on one or more of the following priority thematic areas:&nbsp;<ul><li>Contraception &amp; IUD:&nbsp;Contraception counselling for midwives, shared decision making with clients, and key information on medications and services (with an emphasis on IUDs) through culturally safe, anti-racist, and anti-oppressive frameworks. </li><li>Perinatal mental health: Key issues related to mental health during all phases of pregnancy and the postpartum period, with an emphasis on key intersecting topics requested by our membership, such as addictions and substance abuse counselling/support, providing trauma-informed care, and perinatal depression/anxiety.</li><li>Gender-inclusive care:&nbsp;Provision of gender-affirming care, supporting trans clients and their families, and providing gender-inclusive midwifery services.</li><li>Abortion care:&nbsp;Adapt CAM’s French-language abortion course, <a href="https://camlearns.canadianmidwives.org/" target="_blank">Introduction à l'interruption de&nbsp;grossesse&nbsp;-&nbsp;Concepts clés et éléments pratiques&nbsp;</a>for a broader and English-speaking audience.&nbsp;</li></ul>Revised courses are:&nbsp;<ul><li>The courses to be revised will be determined at a later date upon CAM’s consultation with key stakeholder representative groups.&nbsp;</li></ul>Courses on CAM Learns are designed in two formats: Micro-lessons provide up to 20 minutes of online, selfguided content per module, while long-form courses offer up to one hour of online, self-guided content, divided into multiple modules.

Request for Proposals (RFP)Consultant to Review and Analyze International Data Systems for Patient OutcomesIssued by: Canadian Fertility and Andrology Society (CFAS)RFP Number: CFAS-2025-01Date of Issue: November 11th, 2025Submission Deadline: January 11th, 20261. IntroductionThe Canadian Fertility and Andrology Society (CFAS) invites proposals from qualified consultants or consulting firms to undertake a comprehensive comparative analysis of international and national database models of treatment outcome data systems. The purpose of this initiative is to provide CFAS with evidence-based recommendations to guide decision-making for supporting a modernized, interoperable, and technologically advanced national fertility data framework and database.The CFAS wants to understand the health information database landscape broadly to ensure that national data is collected and accessible in a way that maximizes efficiency and capitalizes on Artificial Intelligence (AI) advancement. The envisioned system should be nimble, capable of dynamic updates, interoperable across fertility clinic electronic medical record (EMR) systems, and adaptable to future innovations including artificial intelligence (AI) applications and data analytics. The goal is to ensure aggregate national data of fertility outcomes is 1) accurate and credible 2) accessible for researchers, policy makers, the public 3) available to clinics in ‘real-time’ intervals, to be able to compare performance nationally, to facilitate key learnings and raise the bar on quality across Canada.2. BackgroundThe Canadian Fertility and Andrology Society (CFAS) is the recognized national multidisciplinary authority in reproductive health, representing professionals working in fertility and andrology, in the areas of research, medicine, mental health, science, and law.The Society’s members include clinicians, scientists, embryologists, nurses, lawyers, counsellors, and allied professionals committed to advancing reproductive health and patient care across Canada. The CFAS is one of the oldest professional Societies, entering its 72nd year. The mission of the CFAS is to responsibly advance reproductive science and medicine in Canada through leadership, research and guidance. It is responsible for the balanced advancement of the Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) field in Canada, prioritizing evidence-based decision making to the benefit of Canadians and children born of this technology.Currently, fertility treatment outcome data in Canada is coordinated through BORN Ontario (Better Outcomes Registry &amp; Network), which links in-vitro fertilization treatment data to provincial birth outcomes and receives some infrastructure funding from the Government of Ontario. Participating clinics voluntarily share their data with BORN to populate the Canadian Assisted Reproductive Technologies Registry (CARTR). This system of data collection has been in place since 2013, and collects data from clinics both within Ontario (who are required to report funded cycles from the Ontario Funded Program to BORN) and clinics across Canada.The CFAS seeks to understand the current databases in the fertility space, and leverage key learnings from other international systems, such as:<ul><li>The Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART) database in the United States;</li><li>The European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) data platform EuMAR creation (which aims to build on these national-level registries and develop a pan-European registry of prospective cycle-by-cycle data on the use and outcomes of MAR treatments).</li></ul>In addition, national systems of health/patient treatment outcomes should also be analyzed to ensure emerging domestic innovations that use advanced technologies are included, such as:<ul><li>Private database developers offering modular or AI-driven fertility data solutions; and</li><li>The Toronto University Health Network (UHN) and its related hospital data infrastructure, known for its integrated digital platforms and advanced use of data analytics and AI in clinical care.</li></ul>These are examples of potential leaders in this area. The RFP seeks a comparative and forward-looking analysis that identifies best practices, opportunities for interoperability, and pathways to modernize Canada’s national fertility data ecosystem.3. ObjectivesThe objectives of this consultancy are to:<ol><li>Conduct a comparative analysis of national and institutional fertility outcome data models, including CARTR-Plus-BORN Ontario, SART (U.S.), ESHRE (Europe), Toronto UHN, and private data solutions (other stakeholders may be included or excluded, based on the recommendations of the consultant).</li><li>Evaluate governance, interoperability, privacy frameworks, and technical architectures supporting these systems.</li><li>Identify technological enablers, including AI, machine learning (ML), predictive analytics, and automation, that enhance data integration, accuracy, and accessibility.</li><li>Recommend adaptable strategies to strengthen Canada’s fertility data infrastructure, leveraging BORN Ontario’s foundation.</li><li>Provide a modernization roadmap outlining technical, operational, and governance requirements to achieve a truly national, interoperable, and future-ready fertility dataplatform.</li></ol>4.
