Physician Training
The Central North West Basic Physician Training
Consortium incorporates Austin Health, Northern Health,
Bendigo Health, and Wimmera Healthcare Group (Horsham
Hospital).
The Consortium is renowned for its physician-training
program and has an excellent pass rate in the FRACP
Written and Clinical Exams. The Consortium runs a mock
written exam in early February which emulates true exam
conditions. A feedback session gives the opportunity for
trainees to discuss the questions and answers. Directors of
Physician Training and Senior Medical Registrars at both
Austin and Northern organise an extensive series of topic
tutorials, long and short case clinical tutorials and arrange
Saturday morning practice clinical exams to adequately
prepare trainees for the clinical exam. The practice clinical
exams are held at Austin Health, Northern Health and
Bendigo Health. A Professional Development program is
available for Physician Trainees through the Consortium
and covers topics such as Feedback Teaching styles
Mentoring Managing Conflict Team building skills.
Please refer to the PMCV website for matching information
