Part II examinations, usually undertaken in the fifth and final year of training.
The RCPA Trainee Handbooks contain discipline specific information on assessment and examinations and are available from the college's website.
Overseas Trained Specialists
The Board of Education and Assessment makes an independent assessment following interview by, and the advice of, an overseas trained specialist assessment subcommittee as described below. At the same time the assessment applicant will be provided with training determinations as to any additional training time or examinations they would need to undertake should they wish to attain the fellowship of the RCPA.
The college follows the nationally consistent approach to assessing overseas trained specialists in relation to accepting them for assessment via the overseas trained specialist pathway; that is, they must be deemed to be a specialist in their original country and not need more than two years of top up training/assessment before being eligible for the Australasian fellowship.
