How much RPLE can I apply for?

You can apply for up to 52 weeks (FTE) RPLE if you have the appropriate learning and experience. The following limits apply:

  • For clinical hospital terms completed after PGY1/ intern year – apply for credit of 12–52 weeks (FTE).
    Use as credit for AGPT hospital training terms (a maximum of 26 weeks can be credited to any one discipline).
  • For extensive hospital experience, with adequate breadth, variety and recency – apply for credit of up to 26 weeks (FTE), to be used for the AGPT extended skills training term.
  • A combination of both the above – apply for credit of up to 52 weeks (FTE).

Therefore, RPLE contributes a maximum of 52 calendar weeks FTE to the two calendar years of training required for Fellowship exam eligibility. Please refer to Overview of Fellowship exams for more information.
