How to apply for accreditation as a special training environment
To apply for special training environment site accreditation, health facilities and/or supervisors need to complete an RACGP special training environments accreditation application form and email it to: adf@racgp.org.au. The application will then be referred to the appropriate regional accreditation coordinator.
How to apply for ADF overseas or other deployment extended skills training placements
Overseas extended skills training placements are only available to registrars in the ADF. Placements require individual prospective RACGP approval. ADF registrars can also apply to have deployments within Australia approved for extended skills training time.
Extended skills placements and special training environments allow ADF registrars to further their knowledge and skills.
Apply for ADF overseas or other deployment extended skills training placements using the following steps:
- Registrars must complete the ADF overseas or other deployment extended skills application and Appendix A-Learning plan in consultation with their prospective supervisor, medical educator and regional training coordinator.
- For deployments within Australia, approval and sign off by the regional medical educator is required.
- For overseas deployments, the application is signed by the regional medical educator and forwarded to the state censor.
- Following censor approval, a copy is provided to the National Accreditation Unit: adf@racgp.org.au for National oversight by the National Lead Medical Educator - ADF.
If your application is not approved, you will receive feedback on the reasons why and may submit an application for reconsideration.
