Tips for GP Supervisors from the GP Supervisor Alumni

Dr Gerard Connors

This is the first in what we hope is a regular series of articles from very experienced past or present GP supervisors.This article, written by Dr Gerard Connors, retired GP Supervisor and a former Chair of GPSA, is particularly aimed at new or recent GP supervisors.

A framework to promote the satisfaction and progression of IMGs in rural GP pathways

GPSA is currently leading a collaborative project funded through RACGP’s Educational Research Grants, the goal of which is to develop a framework for the supervision of International Medical Graduates (IMGs) to promote satisfaction and progression in rural GP pathways.

If you identify with any of the below-listed target cohorts and are interested in contributing to this body of work, the research team - made up of Chief Investigator A/Prof Belinda O'Sullivan, A/Prof Samia Toukhsati, and Drs Kim Omond and Neysan Sedaghat – invites you to enrol here:

  • rural IMGs 
  • rural supervisors 
  • medical educators involved with IMGs 
  • health system stakeholders involved in rural pathways

Co-design focus groups will be held between March and May this year. A Project Advisory Group is overseeing the project, which will conclude in December 2025.

This study is also being promoted through GPRA, RACGP, ACRRM, Rural Workforce Agencies, Rural Generalist Programs, RDAA and IMG committees and employers. You are welcome to snowball these efforand invite others in your network.
