Fellowships for Advanced Vocational Trainees
Fellowships offer a unique opportunity to consolidate specialist training while gaining high-level experience in both clinical practice and research. In Western Australia, these fellowships are typically based in major tertiary hospitals, providing access to cutting-edge facilities, multidisciplinary teams, and a diverse patient population.
These positions are designed for trainees who have completed or are nearing completion of their core specialty training. They offer:

- Structured research opportunities with academic supervision
- Mentorship from senior clinicians and researchers
- Preparation for consultant roles, including leadership and teaching experience

Fellowships are available across a range of specialties and are often aligned with the strategic priorities of WA Health.
