Abstract
These three curricula for advanced training practice represent the first significant progress towards the development of specific vocational training for rural general practice. They have been created by rural doctors in consultation with their rural specialist colleagues and with the support of the learned colleges and educationists. Dedicated and enthusiastic project management with a clear understanding of the issues and context of rural general practice was also an essential element for the success of this project. Following implementation and evaluation of the curricula in accredited training posts throughout 1993 and 1994, opportunities will arise to develop further curricula in other medical disciplines and to use the methodology developed for other health fields both in Australia and overseas.
