Fellowship Support Program
Adelaide to Outback GP Training Program (AOGP) has been providing support to rural-based International Medical Graduates (IMGs) within the AOGP training region preparing for the RACGP examination via the alternative pathway since 2003. This was enabled through vision and funding from Rural Doctors Workforce Agency (RDWA). A basic model for this support is shown below. The model is based around a regionally distributed team of IMG Medical Educators to provide localised support, and an Education Team to coordinate and support the process.

The AOGP project team has developed an effective process of individualising education support. The whole program is tailored to each IMG’s individual needs, while still providing information essential to understanding the requirements of the RACGP exam.
Our education support is developed and delivered by a team of IMG Medical Educators (MEs). An ME is an experienced GP who has a passion for education, particularly in the area of IMG exam support. They come form diverse backgrounds, expertise and experience.
