Gain vocational recognition without having to relocate

Remote Vocational Training Scheme (RVTS) is a national training program for medical practitioners seeking General Practice and Rural Generalist Fellowship.

We deliver distance training and remote supervision to doctors in rural, remote, and First Nations communities across Australia, as well as Aboriginal Medical Services.

So far, RVTS has supported over 500 doctors through to Fellowship (FRACGP, FRACGP-RG or FACRRM) via the three to four-year program – enabling them to continue to provide medical care to their local communities while training.

RVTS aims to:
Improve access to vocational training for all doctors throughout Australia;
Contribute to the recruitment and retention of rural and remote doctors; and
Strengthen the continuity and quality of medical services in isolated areas.

I think this is the best program in Australia - it supports rural Doctors from a distance and gives them confidence and satisfaction. RVTS is very supportive and so I fully recommend this program.
