Becoming an AGES Trainee

The AGES Accredited Training Program (AATP) is a two-year training program in advanced gynaecological endoscopy to facilitate endoscopic training in Australia and New Zealand. This program, the result of over a decade of collaboration between AGES, RANZCOG, leading clinicians, trainees and researchers throughout Australia and New Zealand, provides a template for the standardisation of training in advanced endoscopic surgery.

Applications for Interviews for Trainee Positions for 2028-29 are now open.

Applications open: Sunday 1st November 2026.
Applications close: Friday 29th January 2027, at 5pm AEST. 

• Interviews will be held on Saturday 6th March 2027, between 8:00am and 12:00pm, during the AGES Annual Scientific Meeting (ASM) in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
• The ASM is being held from Thursday 4th March to Saturday 6th March 2027, and applicants must be fully registered delegates of the conference in order to be eligible for an interview.
• Late applications will not be accepted.

Please note:
Appointment to a position and employment requirements are determined by the individual units.
You do not need to interview at the AGES ASM to be appointed to a position - each Unit will abide by the recruitment policies of their own medical organisation.

AGES simply co-ordinates the meeting for those interested in becoming an AATP trainee to present to all of the unit representatives at once.

AGES cannot help with medical registration in Australia/New Zealand - please contact RANZCOG for information.
