Tender Description

⁠⁠⁠Summary

The Paediatrics and Child Health Division (PCHD) Accreditation Subcommittee seeks expressions of interest from PCHD Fellows for 2 positions.

Description

The Subcommittee, reporting to the Paediatrics and Child Health Basic Training Committee, manages the accreditation of PCHD Basic Training settings to ensure high quality environments for trainees.

The Subcommittee has vacancies for 2 Fellows who are interested in contributing to the discussion and decision-making around accreditation of training setting providers for the Paediatrics and Child Health Basic Training program.

  • attending a minimum of 3 joint meetings with the Adult Internal Medicine Basic Training Accreditation Subcommittee a year, with up to 2 being face-to-face — these will be scheduled on the same day as the PCHD Accreditation Subcommittee

  • flexibility and willingness to support the new accreditation program and accreditation of training settings, through site visits and videoconferences
  • contributing to joint discussions and decision-making on accreditation of training settings for Adult Internal Medicine and Paediatrics and Child Health Basic Training Programs

Subcommittee meetings run for approximately 5 hours with the first 2 hours assigned to decisions regarding joint accreditation in collaboration with the Basic Training Adult Internal Medicine Accreditation Subcommittee.

See the RACP Travel Policy and Guidelines (PDF) for information on reimbursement of travel expenses to attend face-to-face meetings and accreditation setting visits.
