Professional Development

The Rural Doctors Workforce Agency promotes the Professional Development of rural doctors by providing and supporting opportunities that contribute to enhancing knowledge and skills.

Both RACGP and ACRRM accredit professional development activities using a points system over a three-year period. All Rural Doctors Workforce Agency professional development programs are accredited by the RACGP and ACRRM and attract points (point allocation is not guaranteed and is subject to review by the RACGP and ACRRM). See below links for further information about the courses and activities offered by the Rural Doctors Workforce Agency.
