Training Opportunities

 

Austwide Locums is the first locum agency to have arrangements with course directors at major hospitals. These arrangements facilitate clinical skills training opportunities for our locums, and Austwide Locums encourages our registered doctors to attend the courses appropriate for their locum objectives.
