Who we are.

NP Circle is Canada’s largest and most trusted digital hub for NPs, bringing together community, education, and mentorship.

It began with a simple but powerful idea: to create what so many NPs in Canada have gone without. A place to feel supported. A place to belong. A space where education is practical, mentorship is meaningful, and community truly matters.

Our mission is to support and empower NPs with the community, education, and mentorship they need to thrive in practice.
Our vision is a future where every NP feels connected, valued, and equipped to lead change so that patients, communities, and health systems can thrive.

Since launching, NP Circle has grown into a hub for thousands of NPs. Here, you’ll find evidence-based continuing education, mentorship opportunities, peer support, and honest conversations about the realities of NP practice — conversations that fuel meaningful change.

Through this work, we are redefining how NPs are supported by centring connection, real-world learning, and collaboration as essential to a thriving profession.

As NP Circle continues to grow across Canada and beyond, our focus remains the same: to expand opportunities, deepen support, and strengthen the NP community everywhere.

Connect, learn, and grow with NPs across Canada.

Testimonials

  • "I am so incredibly grateful and happy that NP Circle exists! I’ve always felt that NPs in Canada haven’t previously had structured and high quality resources available to help foster continuing education after graduation, and NP Circle has really superseded my expectations. Every course I’ve attended has left me with a wealth of invaluable and practical knowledge, and the “Resource” section on this website is full of high-quality and practical resources! I also love the questions and answers that NPs accross Canada are able to contribute to, it’s such a helpful learning resource. I can’t thank Aliya enough for creating this space for all of us!"

  • "I’m loving being a part of NP Circle! The courses are taught by MDs and NPs who are the best in their field. I’ve had so many great takeaways for my practice. All the resources I need for practice are easily accessible. It’s also been nice to receive updates on relevant news to NP practice and to learn from difficult cases posted by other NPs. Any questions I have related to daily practice or career advancement I can post on there and someone always has helpful advice/information. All in all it’s a great one stop shop for all my NP needs!"

  • “As an experienced nurse practitioner, I found this lab interpretation course to be both refreshing and incredibly valuable. The content is concise yet comprehensive, covering everything from basic panels to more complex diagnostics in a clinically relevant way. It’s clear the course was designed with real-world application in mind — bridging the gap between textbook knowledge and what we actually see in practice. Whether you’re newly licensed or have years under your belt, this course sharpens your diagnostic skills and boosts confidence in managing complex lab results. Highly recommend for anyone looking to elevate their clinical acumen.”

  • “These are the most important education sessions you can attend as a nurse practitioner in primary health care. You leave with tangible tools to better serve your patients and minimize unnecessary referrals and long specialist wait times. Sessions are organized with sufficient time for questions and some specialist even provide post-session written materials.”

  • “I’m so happy this exists! I would highly recommend these events to any primary care provider who is looking to gain knowledge from some of the best specialists and improve their everyday practice. I’ve already been able to implement some of the knowledge I gained from the first session into my practice and prevent an unnecessary referral! 5/5 stars”

  • "As a recently retired NP, I have experienced firsthand the diverse facets of our profession, from clinical expertise and advocacy, to leadership , scholarship, and research. Now more than ever, it's crucial to be part of a supportive community of like-minded NPs. Being connected in this way empowers us to grow both individually and collectively, enhancing our ability to elevate patient care to new heights."

  • “Could not be happier with my decision to attend this event. For ~$20 per session, you get evidence-based and relevant clinical tools from medical specialists. The majority of the sessions are held after a standard work day and recorded for later viewing as well, which is super convenient. After attending each session, I take away valuable knowledge that will enhance the care that I provide my patients.”
