Robust training that attracts registrars, rewards supervisors and addresses the complexity and scope of general practice

---

​​We have worked hard to bring GP training back to the RACGP. Now it is time for training to be flexible, robust, contemporary and adaptable.Training our future generation is the foundation of a healthy profession. Registrars learn from quality supervision. We need to grant supervisors the time and expertise to train the next generation of GPs.

​
​Working together we should seek to:

---

Registrars 

• Adequately remunerate doctors in training
• Together we can develop a model that improves the terms and conditions for the employment of GP registrars and supports those transitioning from hospitals to general practice
• Create an educational experience that is robust, flexible, supportive and addresses the complexity and scope of general practice.  

Training Practices ​

Training incentive payments that acknowledge the cost of supervision and education, promotes quality supervision, and allows practices  to maintain a suitable learning environment .

Supervisors 

• A funding model that adequately remunerates GP supervisors for the time they spend, balancing quality supervision, patient care and business excellence​
• High quality, contemporary professional development for GP supervisors.
