title: [Anaesthesia training program in Australia].
abstract: We reviewed anaesthesia training program in Australia. Anaesthetists in Australia and New Zealand need to obtain the Diploma of Fellowship of the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists (FANZCA) to be recognised as specialists. The training sequence approved by ANZCA encompasses an initial two-year Prevocational Medical Education, Training (PMET) period, and the five-year period of ANZCA Approved Training, which included two-year Basic Training and three-year Advanced Training. On completion of all Training Program requirements the Trainee is awarded the Diploma of Fellowship and is entitled to use the qualification of FANZCA. The assessment of trainees in anaesthesia is principally by examination and the staff of the hospitals in which trainees work. There are a number of specific goals to be achieved during training. ANZCA accredits Hospital Departments of Anaesthesia and other training institutions across Australia, New Zealand, and South-East Asia, to provide approved training in anaesthesia for ANZCA trainees. Accreditation requires an onsite review by the College in order to assess a hospital's ability to provide training and supervision of the required standard, and its degree of compliance with ANZCA Professional Documents.
