Components of Training

The minimum three years of accredited training will include a two year period of both core and optional training and a further year of elective training devoted to gaining proficiency and further experience in clinically related fields or in a research program.

Core training is a mandatory part of advanced training. Instruction and experience must be gained in all elements within the three year total program for full accreditation of training. Optional training includes extended experience in core fields and provides opportunities in other areas. While it is expected that training will be as broad as possible, it is realised that not all trainees will gain comprehensive experience in all areas.
