It is strongly recommended that all applicants read the South Australian Centralised Process Guideline prior to commencing an application.

The intern year marks the transition from student to medical practitioner. It provides the experience of applying the theory to the treatment of patients as a responsible professional. The Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (Ahpra) issues medical graduates with provisional registration to undertake this period of supervised practice.

The intern year involves at least 47 weeks of satisfactory, supervised clinical experience that includes a minimum of four terms (of at least 10 weeks each term) in different specialties. 

During the year interns will be required to gain direct clinical experience in each of the following clinical care categories:

• Care of patients with undifferentiated presentations,
• Peri-operative / procedural care,
• Care of patients with chronic illnesses, and
• Care of patients with acute and critical illnesses.

At the completion of the intern year, the employing hospital is required to certify that the internship has been completed satisfactorily, including details of completed rotations. Ahpra will grant general registration when it receives confirmation that the internship has been satisfactorily completed, along with other requirements.
