Program overview

The College will allocate you to an Integrated 欧美AV Program (ITP) for the duration of your Basic 欧美AV.

An ITP is group of 欧美AV-accredited hospitals that usually includes at least one tertiary hospital and one rural hospital.

Academic stream

The academic stream of the F欧美AV 欧美AV Program recognises and supports careers in academic O&G, by allowing you to take up to three years (156 weeks) of research leave to complete a PhD in a discipline relevant to women鈥檚 health.

Following completion of a PhD, you may be credited with 46 weeks (one year) of Advanced 欧美AV, and you will be deemed to have met the research requirement of the F欧美AV training program. Information can be found in the 欧美AV Regulations (see Section B1.20 Research 欧美AV and Academic Stream).

Integrated 欧美AV Program

Basic training

You will spend a significant proportion of your training time at a single home/base hospital, while rotating to other hospitals within your ITP.

Across 184 weeks (four years), your ITP will provide you with access to:

  • Rotation through two or more different hospitals, with at least:
    • 46 weeks in a tertiary hospital
    • 23 weeks in a rural hospital
    • 46 weeks in a non-base hospital (can include rural rotation)
  • An ITP Coordinator with responsibility for coordinating your Basic 欧美AV
  • An in-hospital education program specifically designed for F欧美AV trainees
  • An appropriate level of clinical experience to support your Basic 欧美AV

Rural training

During your compulsory rural rotation, you will gain exposure to opportunities that may not be available at a tertiary hospital, including:

  • An understanding of the distinctive issues facing rural hospitals, such as patient transfers and proximity to subspecialists and tertiary facilities.
  • Enhanced confidence and competence in core operative skills.
  • Increased independence in the skills needed for Advanced 欧美AV.
  • Involvement in outpatient and outreach clinics.
  • Exposure to different models of patient care and follow-up care

The College will take into account the merits of the training post and model for supervision when considering your rural rotation for prospective approval.

Credited training time

欧美AV time will be credited after each satisfactorily assessed six-month semester and only when you are considered financial (the Annual 欧美AV Fee is paid or an appropriate payment plan is in place).

Credited training time is an aggregate of time calculated in weeks less any leave taken.聽Part-time training contributes on a pro-rata basis but must not be less than 0.5 FTE.

Time in training

Please note, time in training is different to credited training time.

Time in training is all time on the F欧美AV training program, other than time taken as approved extended leave of absence or approved research leave as part of the Academic Stream. Approved fractional training (i.e. FTE training undertaken on a part-time basis) will be considered pro rata.

Basic Time in 欧美AV (BTIT)

  • Trainees must complete the four years (184 FTE weeks of credited training) of Basic 欧美AV within six years of commencing Basic 欧美AV (i.e. six years BTIT).

Advanced Time in 欧美AV (ATIT)

  • Trainees must complete the two years (92 FTE weeks of credited training) of Advanced 欧美AV within three years of commencing Advanced 欧美AV (i.e. three years ATIT).
