Application for an AGES Accredited Training Site

Any unit may apply to become an AGES Accredited Training Site. The AGES education subcommittee has developed a standard application for accreditation of a training centre. This application has been subject to extensive peer review and covers a wide variety of educational needs as well as surgical requirements and expectations for training. A minimum of two supervisors will be required for a centre to be recognised as a training site.

For approved sites, the curriculum and assessment tools will be provided and undertaken within the unit’s own infrastructure. For prospective training sites, the central application and interview process will facilitate the review of all prospective trainees at one time and in a single location.

The delivery of training will continue to be the responsibility of individual facilities, albeit within the guidelines that have been established by AGES.

Application forms are available on the AGES website, please see below, or from AGES Education.

Cost for the Application

The following fees are applicable. Accreditation per unit is AUD 3300, this fee is for certification of a site to cover ongoing costs. For training sites an annual fee of AUD 1500 per site per trainee is payable. Invoices will be sent and are payable in the first quarter of each year.
