Extension for training and assessment purposes

Extension for training and assessment purposes

In some situations, you may need an extension of program time to satisfactorily complete a stage of training, sit or re-sit Fellowship exams, or to regain an appropriate level of competence after an extended period of leave. If your training coordinator or medical educator decides you need an extension, they’ll discuss this with you before applying this to your profile.

If you’re completing the rural generalist training, you have access to an additional 52 calendar weeks that can be used for extensions for training and assessment purposes and category 2 leave.
