Supervisors are GPs who teach, inspire and support the next generation of GPs through their years of training.
In the MCCC GP Training region more than 600 Supervisors who work in accredited training practices are training GP Registrars, overseas trained doctors and medical students.
These supervisors offer one-on-one teaching, supervision, support, feedback and advice and deliver more than 90% of the training components of the Australian General Practice Training program.
The AGPT is based on an apprenticeship model where the majority of GP training is conducted within GP clinics, Aboriginal Medical Services or approved hospitals, with supplementary peer learning workshops.
