Training
Accreditation
The Board appreciates that to provide the diversified clinical and educational experience necessary to achieve competency in neurosurgery, training positions in distinctly different hospital teaching environments are necessary. As such criteria for the accreditation of training positions has been developed in a hierarchal manner to facilitate the inclusion of training positions not only in principal teaching hospitals, but also affiliated hospitals generally located in outer-metropolitan areas and private hospitals. Training positions specifically for paediatric neurosurgery are also accredited as part of the SET Program.
Accreditation Criteria and Applications
The Board of Neurosurgery has very comprehensive Regulations clearly detailing the criteria and processes for the accreditation of training positions which can be downloaded below. To be considered for the accreditation or re-accreditation of a training position for the following year applications including payment must be received no later than February in the year prior unless otherwise advised by the Board to allow completion of the accreditation process prior to the final allocation of trainees which occurs during July each year.
