CPD Program for Rural Fellows

The Victorian Branch has been instrumental in facilitating innovative CPD programs for Rural Fellows. Through funding from the Support Scheme for Rural Specialists, a joint initiative of the Commonwealth of Health and Ageing and the Committee of Presidents of Medical Colleges, the RANZCR provides four state of the art programs that give rural and regional specialists the same opportunities as their city colleagues to meet, discuss cases and at the same time add to their CPD points. These programs are coordinated by the Victorian Branch on behalf of the College and the Faculty of Radiation Oncology:

  • Case reviews from the Alfred Hospital Radiology Team
  • RANZCR Victorian Branch Monthly Scientific Meetings
  • Interventional Radiology
  • Videoconference Series "Current Issues in Oncology for Medical Specialists"
