Executive Summary
The Medical Training Review Panel (MTRP) was formed under legislation in 1997 to report to the Commonwealth Minister for Health on the activities of the MTRP and provide data on medical training opportunities in Australia. Over the years, through its annual report, the Panel has provided a comprehensive picture of medical education and training, supplementing this with other data on the medical workforce supply.
In 2015, National Medical Training Advisory Network (NMTAN) took over the MTRP function to produce an annual report on medical education and training. More details on the transfer are provided in Chapter 1.
The nineteenth annual report of the MTRP was compiled by the Australian Government Department of Health, with oversight by the NMTAN. This report provides information on university, prevocational and vocational medical training positions, students and trainees, college fellows and overseas trained medical practitioners.
Data were provided by the Medical Deans Australia and New Zealand Inc. (Medical Deans), state and territory health departments, specialist medical colleges, the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) and the Australian Medical Council (AMC). Selected administrative data from the Australian Government Department of Health and the Australian Government Department of Immigration and Border Protection have also been included.
To aid readability, tables in the body of the report present time series information on the last five years for which data were available. Data for all years are included in Appendix D and where possible date back to 1997, which was the first year of annual reporting by the MTRP. For the purposes of the Executive Summary, the latest available data have been summarised and trends in the data have been examined across all years for which national data were available.
