We are excited to announce that partners Flinders University and Mount Gambier Hospital are now accredited by the Australian Medical Council to commence a 12 month workplace based assessment (WBA) program. Our first three candidates were admitted to the program in July 2018.
WBA offers an alternate assessment pathway to the AMC Clinical Exams for international medical graduates (IMGs) to seek general registration with the Medical Board of Australia.
The IMGs have their clinical skills and knowledge assessed while working in the Australian healthcare system. They must progress competently through the formative and summative phases of the program which tests their clinical skills, decision making skills, interaction with patients and their ability to work as part of a healthcare team.
There are limited WBA programs accredited in Australia. We are proud to announce that this is the only WBA program accredited in South Australia.
If you are interested in taking part in this program in the future, please email the WBA team wbamtgambier@flinders.edu.au to be added to our contact list.
The below documentation outlines the admission process and entry requirements for the 2020 WBA program. Please note these are for reference only and will be updated when a new round of applications is opened.
