The centralised trainee tutorial program is an exciting initiative introduced in 2021 to provide all pain medicine trainees with access to a formalised teaching program and regular opportunities to engage with other trainees.

We regularly invite our fellows and trainees to provide formal feedback on a range of college activities so we can continue to improve. The results and associated action plans are published here.

The purpose of the ESN is “to advocate, collaborate and promote initiatives and projects related to environmental sustainability within anaesthesia, perioperative and pain medicine”.

There are three commonly recognised types of pain.

The FPM NSW Regional Committee is an elected body that acts as a conduit between fellows and trainees in the NSW region, and the FPM Board and Professional Standards Committee to which they report.

The ANZCA Council governs the college with the support of the FPM Board and various committees. Its roles include reviewing and approving the annual strategic plan and budget, and developing and monitoring key performance indicators and other benchmarks.

The FPM WA Regional Committee is an elected body that acts as a conduit between fellows and trainees in the WA region, and the FPM Board to which they report.

The 2025 Regional Organising Committee (ROC) is primarily responsible for the formation of the scientific program and meeting theme.

The FPM Victoria Regional Committee is an elected body that acts as a conduit between fellows and trainees in the Victoria regions, and the FPM Board to which they report.

The ANZCA Executive Committee reviews and consolidates documentation and financial matters; makes recommendations to the ANZCA Council, and acts on behalf of the council where appropriate.
