Training Sites
Site Accreditation
Advanced Training Sites are organisations or departments which provide work-based training for Public Health Medicine Registrars. These include, but are not limited to, working alongside a Medical Officer of Health in the National Public Health Service, other positions in Te Whatu Ora, Primary Health Organisations, the Ministry of Health and non-government organisations.
All Advanced Training Sites employing a Public Health Medicine Registrar are required to be accredited by the College. This is consistent with the Medical Council of New Zealand's expectation that all medical colleges have a formal process in place to accredit the training sites used for the training of registrars.
The Accreditation of Advanced Training Sites policy defines the standards and describes the process for the Accreditation of Advanced Training Sites for registrars in the NZCPHM Training Programme.
Applying for site accreditation requires completion of the Application form for Accreditation of a Training Site.
