About AdvanceMed.

Our story recognises that doctors need a doctor coach.

We are doctors who support and help you manage and succeed in your medical career.

AdvanceMed is an initiative to provide career advice, planning and preparation among postgraduate medical trainees in Australia, created by a team of doctors with a strong interest in transitions in medical training.

Our feature event is an intensive workshop, which covers various aspects of the specialty training application and interview preparation.

Tickets to the 2017, 2018, and 2019 AdvanceMed Career Planning & Interview Preparation Workshop sold out. Our online workshop in 2020 had over 650 participants. Our online workshop in 2021 had over 760 attendees.

Our personalised services for doctors include:

  • Career advice
  • CV or Resume review/feedback
  • Online Coaching, including Interview Coaching
  • Online Courses

If you are a Director of Training or a private group looking for a workshop solution in relation to medical career planning or medical education we are able to tailor a package to suit your needs.

If you are a Medical Educator looking to get online with your content or education packages we are able to assist you through our AdvanceMed Academy Courses.

“I highly recommend Advancemed’s career/job application workshop. It was jam packed with practical tips from registrars and insider advice from consultants involved in interviewing and selecting candidates for various training pathways. It has given me a competitive edge for CV writing and more confidence in preparing for interviews. Seriously good value for money as well!
