Since its launch in March 2025, more than 28,000 prevocational doctors, their supervisors and training administrators across the country have registered with Clinical Learning Australia (CLA)
CLA is an online national system that records the development, training and assessment of prevocational doctors across all states and territories in Australia. The AMC has led the development and implementation project which was funded by the Health Chief Executive Forum with oversight by the Health Workforce Taskforce. The system allows prevocational doctors in accredited PGY1 and PGY2 programs, and their supervisors, to complete all assessments online, replacing the need for paper-based forms.
CLA extends to PGY3+ and international medical graduate doctors
From 2026, health services will be able to give CLA access to PGY3+ doctors who are not in a specialist medical training program and international medical graduate doctors progressing to general registration, to record their learning and development.
They will have access to the same forms (midterm and end-of-term assessments, EPA assessments) used by PGY1 and PGY2 doctors.
In preparation for the 2026 clinical year, some health services have already begun to include PGY3+ users and terms in CLA.
If you have any questions about using CLA for PGY3+ and international medical graduates, please contact clasupport@amc.org.au.
