A key feature of the Division’s support to general practice is providing high quality Continuing Professional Development (CPD) for GPs. All CPD activities are endorsed by the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners and Australian College of Rural and Remote Medicine.
CPD activities take place monthly and are held either as an evening dinner meeting, or a day-long weekend workshop at various quality venues throughout the Adelaide Hills. Activities are designed to provide GPs with opportunities to increase their skills and knowledge in a range of topics, through various interactive learning modes, including:
- specialist guest speaker presentations with ‘question & answer’ sessions
- expert panel discussions
- peer interactive case study discussions
- hands-on workshops where appropriate
CPD activities provide the added benefit of peer support and networking with other GPs and allied health professionals working in the region.
The annual CPD calendar supports the various program areas undertaken by the Division and addresses topics identified as local and national health priorities, as well as topics identified by GPs through needs assessment surveys and ongoing feedback.
For further queries, feedback or to register for a CPD activity, contact Alice Windle 8406 7729 or Dianne Millard 8406 7713.
