IMGs WHO HAVE COMPLETED BOTH AMC EXAMINATIONS

To practice medicine in Western Australia, a medical practitioner must be registered with the Board.

Conditional Registration
International Medical Graduates ("IMGs") are eligible for Conditional Registration under the category of supervised clinical practice if they have successfully completed both the:

• Australian Medical Council ("AMC") multiple-choice questionnaire ("MCQ"); and
• AMC clinical examination

Eligibility is subject to the Board being satisfied the person:

• Is competent to practise medicine;
• Has a sound knowledge of the English language; and
• Is of good character.

Those practitioners seeking Conditional Registration with the Board, should first liaise with an employing/sponsoring organisation. The employing/sponsoring organisation will then make the initial application to the Board on behalf of the practitioner.

Conditional registration is site and position specific and is generally granted:

• For a specific duration (on an annual basis); and
• Subject to satisfactory performance.

To progress an application for Conditional Registration, an applicant must:

• Meet the requirements of the Board
• Seek employment. The employer will make an application to the Board on the practitioner's behalf. Contact information is provided for some Western Australian Medical or Teaching Hospitals (employing/sponsoring organisations)

Once the Board has granted Approval of the Initial Assessment ("Initial Approval") the medical practitioner will then be required to make an appointment and present to the Board with the appropriate documentation for Conditional Registration.

Please refer to the Board's policies on:

• English Language Proficiency
• Primary Source Verification
• National ID Validation

Note: Approval of the Initial Assessment means that the Board has considered the initial application from the employer and it has deemed that the medical practitioner is eligible to apply for Conditional Registration in Western Australia. The process of applying for Conditional Registration is a two-stage process as follows:

• Stage 1 is initiated by the employer (Form S and Form AD). Approval of the Initial Assessment may be granted by the Board at this stage; and
• Stage 2 is initiated by the medical practitioner
