  • Make the best choices during each stage of your rural education and training.
  • Understand local workforce options and explore career opportunities, such as regional specialty training.
  • Balance your personal circumstances with training requirements.
  • Access a wide variety of career resources.
  • Apply for awards, scholarships and bursaries, both for study in general, as well as rural medicine specifically.
  • Explore research opportunities as part of your education, such as presenting at the Doctors for Regional Innovation, Vision, Excellence, Research and Scholarship (DRIVERS) conference.

We can also:

  • Introduce you to doctors in the region already on your proposed pathway.
  • Work with key stakeholders along your rural training pathway to lessen any potential road blocks.
  • Help you access a variety of short-course trainings to enhance your degree.
  • Support you with a local mentoring program.

“I learnt that rural medicine is all about applying clinical skills, problem solving creatively, adapting to changes and quick thinking, all whilst building a strong connection with the community - which sounds like fun to me!”
