College Trainees' Committee

Welcome to the College Trainees’ Committee (CTC), the peak body representing all RACP trainees and their interests.

We advocate on behalf of all trainees and provide a forum to discuss matters relating to our training and career pathways. We're working to build trainee engagement, connection and networks to strengthen the collective trainee voice.

Our committee is made up of members from across Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand and we are actively working to encourage trainee representatives across the various College bodies.
