Frequently asked questions

Can I ask Able Medico to review Due Diligence?

YES MOST DEFINITELY.

Our Due Diligence process has resulted in only two Doctors not succeeding in their College assessment since we commenced in 2014. 

We think Due Diligence isa VITAL part of the entire process. It sets the scene. 

Are Area of Need Certificates needed for all IMGs?

It truly depends on the nuances of a specific College. We always err on the side of caution. You will definitely need an AON certificate: 

a. where their College requires it; 
b. they will have AHPRA Limited Area of Need registration. 

What are the rules regarding English Language Tests?

The rules for English Language Tests are defined by the Medical Board of Australia. 

Refer to the course English Language Tests (4PR116).
