VRGP Obstetrics & Gynaecology

Rural Generalist Obstetricians are a core component of providing safe and efficient services to rural women and babies close to home. This training equips RGs with the skills needed to enable the delivery of high-quality health outcomes for women in rural and regional Victoria. Advanced training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology is managed by the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (RANZCOG) and is called the Certificate and Procedural training program. It is a three-tier structure of qualifications that includes the Certificate of Women’s Health (CWH), Associate Training Program (Procedural) (PTP), and Associate Training Program (Advanced Procedural) (APTP).
