The AMC is conducting a survey of international medical graduates to better understand the experiences and challenges international medical graduates face when navigating assessment pathways and entry into the Australian medical workforce.
The survey will allow us to look at how we can improve the experience for international medical graduates and to identify what further support is needed.
The survey is part of a project of work that also includes focus groups and interviews. Read more about the International medical graduate experiences and performance project. If you would like to be part of a focus group or interview session to share your experiences in more depth please contact us.
Survey closes 5pm (AEST), Tuesday 26 September.
Dr Vijay Roach talks about the important role that international medical graduates play in Australian communities.
