Canberra Region Medical Education Council
We accredit training programs for doctors working in their first or second year after medical school. We also advise the ACT Government on postgraduate medical education. Learn how we work and how to contact us.
What we do
We are a Ministerial Council set up by the Minister for Health. We support medical education and training in the ACT and nearby areas. Australian Medical Council accredits us to oversee doctors working in their first two years after medical school.
Our work includes:
- assessing and approving postgraduate medical training programs in the ACT and Southern NSW
- advising the Minister on medical training, doctor wellbeing, cultural safety and patient safety
- working with hospitals, supervisors and educators to strengthen medical education across the region.
We also share resources to support training. To find accreditation policies, reports, training terms, and services with training programs, visit the Canberra Region Medical Education Council.
