The Royal Australasian College of Surgeons is the principal body
for training and educating surgeons in Australia and New Zealand.
Accreditation is given by the Australian Medical Council to the
College and standards for education and training are established by
the College.
The College collaborates with the Neurosurgical Society of
Australasia, as agent of the College, to administer the SET Program
in Neurosurgery. The Board of Neurosurgery represents
both the College and the Society on all matters relating to the
Surgical Education and Training (SET) program in Neurosurgery.
The Surgical Education and Training Program in
Neurosurgery provides trainees with clinical and operative
experiences to learn special methods of investigation and become
competent in techniques related to the discipline. Satisfactory
completion of the training program enables trainees to perform
as independent practitioners, meeting the requirements of all
identified College competencies.
