ACEM Training Program - A Trainee's Perspective

The Australasian Training Program A Trainee Perspective Andrew Perry Trainee Committee Chair

What will be covered?• ACEM by numbers• What do we value about the training program?• What could be improved – and how.

Lies, lies and damn statistics

2076 trainees as of November 2011 with 43%of those trainees in provisional training

Total members = getting it right?

What is good about our program• Accessible entry• Flexibility of program – Part vs full time – Timing, frequency and quantity of assessment – Method of meeting assessments – Alternate pathway – Content of training• Clear direction on what to learn – curriculum, textbooks, marking matrix, feedback• Generous RPL policy• Relatively flat hierarchy• Reasonably priced

How could we improve the program?

How could we improve the program?• Make assessment more clinically relevant – What is assessed – How it is assessed – When it is assessed• Increased role as education provider for trainees. – And extending this education to “non-clinical” areas like teaching and supervision.• Move to online education and interactions, where possible.

Make assessment more clinically relevant

What is assessed

How it is assessed

When it is assessed

What about length of training?

Personal views of the College• Genuinely mindful of trainee views• Willing to listen• Keen to help• Natural justice• Smart people with the right knowledge

Thank you’s
