Cally is the official learning management system for the University of Alberta medical program. 

Cally is a network of the following systems.

• Calendar: This platform allows you to view your class schedule in an online interface or sync it with your devices. The schedule details when and where you are expected to be each week. Generally, the schedule is posted a few weeks in advance. During pre-clerkship, the class schedule tends to be a full day on Monday, a half day on Tuesday, a full day on Wednesday, nothing on Thursday, and a wrap-up on Friday, with Saturday and Sunday as rest days. Here, you will also find posted lecture recordings. 

• Assess: This platform houses curricular materials, assignments, and assessments. You will use it to access the following key components of your courses: attendance tracking, groups, assessments, OSCEs, EPA/MDPAs, evaluations, and clinical encounters. 

• Users: This module allows you to view academics and electives, class lists, and grades, as well as submit absence requests. Remember, pre-clerkship and clerkship absence policies are different. The document below provides information regarding how to submit an absence request through Cally. Please view the policies here: Preclerkship Absence Policy; Clerkship Absence Policy. 

• Portfolio: Here, you can find your academic performance data.

• Exam:  The MD Program hosts an internal secure assessment site for our written assessments, including quizzes, midterms, and final exams. Some assessments require you to bring your own device to the session, while others are held in campus computer labs. Details on access to this system will be provided during the specific assessments.

• Data: The data module provides students with the UAlberta MD curriculum map. Here, you can locate recordings of lectures from the current and previous years and search information by keyword.
