The process of selecting psychiatry trainees helps determine whether new applicants have the necessary qualities, skills and experience to become psychiatrists.

The selection process adheres to Equal Opportunity Principles and is designed to be open, impartial and transparent.

Criteria for selection include:

  • Evidence of good standing and eligibility for registration as a medical practitioner with the relevant medical board; and
  • Satisfactory completion of at least 1 year full time equivalent (FTE) general medical training (Regulation 4.2).

Further details regarding the Selection Process can be viewed via the Basic and Advanced Training flowcharts - from enquiry to registration, click here and the explanatory notes click here.

Application/Selection information/processes


The selection process is coordinated by a local Branch Training Committee.

It is important that applicants first make contact with the local Branch Training Committee to establish the availability of appropriate positions and obtain an application pack before contacting the College Secretariat.

Further details and application packages may be obtained from the relevant training office (see below for contact details).

The Council of Australian Governments (COAG) has introduced nationally consistent assessment pathways.  To view the pathways, please click here.

If you already hold a postgraduate qualification in psychiatry from another country, you may be eligible to be assessed by the Committee for Specialist IMG Education (please see the Overseas Specialist pages on this website).
