Advanced Training in General Paediatrics

• Advanced training in General Paediatrics through the Royal Australasian College of Physicians requires the following core requirements:
  • General Paediatrics - 12 months
    • At least 6 months of this time must be General Paediatrics with a perinatal component
    • Completing a core General Paediatric term in a rural site concurrently also completes the required Rural aspect for advanced training
  • Developmental and Psychosocial / Community Paediatrics - 6 months
  • Acute Training (Paediatric Emergency / NICU / PICU) - 6 months
• Trainees must also complete a further 12 months of non-core training

Positions on this site are part of the Victorian Paediatric Advanced Training group (VPAT) who are recruiting in a collaborative manner to decrease the number of individual applications registrars need to complete in order to be considered by multiple sites / jobs
