Fourth Year Mentoring Program

This annual initiative pairs fourth-year medical students 1-on-1 with senior doctors right as students transition into the clinical field. Since inception in 2019 with the Association of Salaried Medical Specialists the program has expanded to include nearly 20% of fourth-year students across the country! The Royal New Zealand College of GPs has been involved in the program since 2022 to match students with General Practitioners and Rural Medicine Specialists.
