21.01.2022 Our Supervisor PD Residentials look a little different this year! Our most recent event saw 82 enthusiastic supervisors attending virtual sessions on topics ranging from the impacts from COVID, cultural safety, ECTV reporting and a Q&A with our CEO and DDMET. Thanks to the Supervisors who attended, in particular Dr Gerard Connors, GP Supervisor, and EV Supervisor Liaison Officer, and Dr Grant Connoley, GP Supervisor and EV Board Director, who snapped their attendance for us. Great job by all our staff involved in making this such a success. #teamEVGPT #supervision #medicaleducation

14.01.2022 We have been part of this collaborative research project since inception. It’s been valuable on many levels.

That information also helps registrars compare that information to their peers and can guide their learning. #BeaGPWithEV #medicaleducation #research
