The five things this calendar does not cover — and why: (1)
Individual AGPT semester rotation dates — these are managed by your training provider (JCTS / Joint Colleges Training Services) and vary by region; check your training provider's portal. (2)
Your candidacy clock — three years from your first exam enrolment; track via the
RACGP My Candidacy portal. (3)
Result release dates — usually 6–8 weeks after each exam, varies; published by the college after the exam runs. (4)
Supervisor report and WBA submission deadlines — set by your training provider, not the college. (5)
State-specific provider number renewal — handled via your usual Medicare provider channels.
