INFORMATION FOR APPLICANTS<br />
WHAT IS AN INTERNSHIP?<br />
An internship in Australia is the period where medical graduates undergo<br />
supervised clinical training within an accredited hospital. For most medical<br />
graduates, it is the first year of employment as a medical practitioner (PGY1).<br />
The internship must be completed before a doctor can be generally registered<br />
with the Medical Board of Australia. As an intern, they have provisional registration<br />
with the Medical Board of Australia.<br />
Notably, 2024 will see the introduction of the 2-year Prevocational Framework.<br />
The 2-year prevocational framework is the nationwide standard for education and<br />
training created by the Australian Medical Council (AMC) that covers PGY1 and<br />
PGY2. The key of this framework is it requires health services to train and assess<br />
doctors in PGY2 if you are not yet on a specialist training college training program.<br />
Our 2022 <strong>AMSA</strong> Advocacy Officer Lauren Wright-Hill has created excellent<br />
graphics breaking down what this 2-year Prevocational Framework entails,<br />
including the structure of the year and training environment.<br />
More information about this 2-year framework can be found at:<br />
