The aim of the IMG Sub Committee is to provide education and support to IMGs working in public hospitals in Tasmania. It seeks to achieve this by identifying work issues affecting IMGs, assessing the training needs of IMGs and identifying where these needs are not met.

The Sub Committee also works to develop programs to enhance the professional skills of the IMGs, examines the relationship between various agencies involved in offering education and training opportunities to IMGs, and serves as a central coordinating body for IMGs in Tasmania. It is vital that IMG representatives from the hospital sites are involved.

The Australian Curriculum Frameword for Junior Doctors was developed under the auspices of CPMEC by a writing group of experienced clinicians and educators.

2009 saw the first major revision of the ACF since its launch in 2006.  The revision was undertaken by a subgroup of the National Steering Committee and Chaired by Dr Greg Keogh (National Project Director).  The revision involved widespread feedback from all stakeholder groups and has ensured that the ACF continues to be a contemporary document meeting the needs of the junior doctors and the wider community.
