Overview

A fair bit has changed since RuralMedEd started out in 2002 as Rural and Regional QLD Consortium – when a group of groundbreaking rural doctors recognised the need to train doctors in their rural communities under the Australian General Practice Training Program. Today RuralMedEd offers four key programs and has a major partnership with Griffith University. Our programs consist of: Longlook – the rural longitudinal clinical program for Griffith University School of Medicine and Dentistry medical students. GPrEP – our innovative and popular general practice training program, training doctors in a rural general practice. Aspire2Health – our high school program inspiring rural students to study health. RuralMedEd Training – our VET program for rural students providing a pathway to a career in rural health. We have a world class team of highly valued and highly skilled rural clinical academics and researchers leading our programs focused on health workforce solutions for rural communities.
