Read moreCanadian GPs with CCFP: Your Pathway to Working in Australia
Are you a Canadian-trained GP holding the Certification in the College of Family Physicians (CCFP)? If so, you may be closer than you think to starting your medical career in Australia.
We’ve recently supported several Canadian GPs through the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) Comparability Assessment with very positive outcomes. Many CCFP doctors are being assessed as Substantially Comparable, meaning their training and experience are recognised as equivalent to that of an Australian-trained GP at the point of admission to Fellowship. This recognition makes the job search process quicker and smoother, as employers are familiar with this pathway and confident in your ability to transition into practice.
