Applicant responsibilities
Applicants are responsible for completing and submitting their own application, creating a post for each position they would like assessed, and providing all required supporting documentation.
The Education Support Team can explain the application requirements and process and direct applicants to relevant guidance materials. However, RACGP cannot complete applications, advise what evidence should be submitted, or submit information on an applicant's behalf.
Assessors can only assess the information and documents available within the online application at the time of assessment. Information provided outside the application may not be considered. If feedback is not addressed, RACGP may be unable to complete the assessment, or the assessment may proceed based on the information available. This may result in some information or experience not being considered as part of the assessment outcome.
If feedback is provided, applicants should review and address each item as soon as possible. While feedback is intended to help applicants progress their application, RACGP cannot guarantee that all issues will be identified in a single round of feedback.
Delays in responding to feedback may result in some documents no longer meeting the application's currency requirements. In these circumstances, RACGP may request updated documents, such as a CV, letter of support or RACGP statutory declaration, before the assessment can proceed.
Where guidance has already been provided, RACGP may be unable to provide further advice beyond the published guidance materials and application feedback.
