Fellows
ANZCA provides a number of programs, services and resources to its Fellows in support of their professional and educational development. The major initiatives of the College are outlined below. The College also maintains a list of accredited and non accredited events that can be accessed by its members.
Continuing Professional Development
The ANZCA Continuing Professional Development has been devised to promote and implement proven and accepted educational standards, strategies and tools to assist Fellows to plan and participate in CPD activities that meet their learning needs, to improve their practice.
Special Interest Groups
The Special Interest Groups (SIGs) are tripartite bodies with the Australian Society of Anaesthetists and the New Zealand Society of Anaesthetists. Appropriate groups of anaesthetists join together to study and report on specific areas of anaesthesia. Their particularly focused information provides continuing education for those anaesthetists tending to specialise in these areas.
Random Review Reports
The Continuing Professional Development Unit undertakes a random review of up to 5% of participants at the end of each program. The audit is undertaken to verify the accuracy of participants returns and the relevance of the activities undertaken to the individuals practice.

This section includes a number of advertisements for positions available for specialist anaesthetists in rural areas. Also available is information on the Rural Anaesthesia Recruitment Service which assists rural hospitals in advertising vacancies.
