  1. Which supervisor role is mandatory for every ACRRM registrar throughout their training period?

    Answer: Rural GP Supervisor accredited by ACRRM

    Every ACRRM registrar must be supported by an ACRRM-accredited Rural GP Supervisor who oversees their day-to-day clinical training.

  2. What is the name of the online platform used by ACRRM registrars to record their learning activities and evidence?

    Answer: E-portfolio

    ACRRM registrars use an e-portfolio system to record evidence of learning, supervisor feedback, and completion of training requirements.

  3. During the FACRRM application, what does a Preliminary Assessment of Training (PAT) determine for eligible doctors?

    Answer: How much prior training may be credited toward FACRRM requirements

    A PAT allows ACRRM to recognise prior learning and training, potentially reducing the total training time required for eligible candidates.

  4. What is the maximum time allowed to complete the FACRRM training program from the date of enrolment?

    Answer: 10 years

    ACRRM requires candidates to complete all Fellowship requirements within 10 years of their initial enrolment date.

  5. Which assessment method within FACRRM requires a candidate to submit a written analysis of a clinical case or rural health issue?

    Answer: Case-Based Discussion (CBD)

    Case-Based Discussion involves the registrar presenting a written case analysis which is then reviewed and discussed with a supervisor or assessor.

  6. Which organisation delivers the training program that leads to FACRRM on behalf of ACRRM in most regions?

    Answer: Regional Training Organisations (RTOs)

    RTOs are contracted to provide support, supervision infrastructure, and administration for ACRRM training in defined geographic regions.

  7. A doctor applying for FACRRM training must hold which level of provisional or general registration with AHPRA as a minimum?

    Answer: General registration

    General registration with AHPRA is required to enrol in FACRRM, as provisional registration does not permit independent practice in training posts.
