Support for Rural Specialists in Australia (SRSA) helps rural specialists stay skilled and engaged so they can provide the best care to their communities. Eligible applicants are invited to apply for a grant of up to $12,000 to complete CPD activities like conferences, workshops, clinical attachments, and peer review. 

The application deadline is 15 October 2024.

Eligibility

To apply for an SRSA grant, you must work rurally (Modified Monash Model categories 2-7) as either:

• A (non-GP) specialist
• An Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander specialist trainee
• A specialist international medical graduate under assessment

If you received a grant in previous funding round (Funding Round 8), you are not eligible to apply in this round. If you were unsuccessful in the past, you can apply again.

SRSA is funded by the Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care and managed by the Council of Presidents of Medical Colleges.
