Anaesthesia training resources: Roles in practice

This guide has been designed to support trainees participating in the ANZCA Anaesthesia Training Program, and contains resources intended to help support the overall training experience.

The ANZCA Roles in Practice are the description of the roles that make up anaesthetic practice expressed in terms of learning outcomes. There are seven roles in total.

The learning outcomes are by their nature relatively generic and can be applied across training irrespective of the training period. They have relevance in all ANZCA Clinical Fundamentals and specialised study units but have been collated together here to emphasise their importance and prevent repetition.
