AUS Minimum Requirements

 
¹ LNA - Ideally one LNA should be completed at the beginning of each substantive term
² PQR - Ideally one PQR completed every 6 months
³ mini-CEX - Ideally one mini-CEX completed per term
⁴ Progress Report - This will be informed by the WSC Reports at the end of each training rotation

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) for 2011

If you have applied for Basic Training for the first time in 2012 with RPL in Australia for 2011 (or prior), you must complete an additional 2 mini-CEXs and 1 additional reflective LNA by 31 August 2012, in order for your RPL training to be accredited. The additional LNA is a reflection of what curriculum learning objectives you achieved in the previous period and will help you with future planning of your training.

You can access the hardcopy of the LNA and mini-CEX forms here in the interim if you currently do not have access to the Basic Training Portal.

Pro-rata Assessments

The additional LNA is a reflection of what curriculum learning objectives you achieved in the previous period and will help you with future planning of your training.For example – in 2012, an Adult Medicine trainee training for 6 months (ie 2 quarters) and on extended leave/interrupting for the remaining 6 months only needs to complete half of the above minimum requirements, i.e. 1 LNA, 2 mini-CEXs, 1 PQR and the Annual Progress Report. Part-time trainees who are training for the full year, are required to do the same number of assessments and tools outlined in the minimum requirements table above, irrespective of full-time equivalency. This is to promote engagement with supervisors and encourage immersion in the program.

Completion of Assessments

Ensure you undertake these assessments during 2012 as it is compulsory for all PREP trainees. Eligibility for the examination will be affected if these assessments are not completed.

If you have any queries regarding the above, please contact mailto:prep_bt@racp.edu.au

Important note : although the College sets minimum requirements for completing the formative assessment during the year, it is highly recommended that additional requirements around the Learning Needs Analysis, mini-CEX and Professional Qualities Reflection be completed in order to improve your learning.
