GP Academy has stopped providing separate single courses because we strongly believe that the preparation process and knowledge required for each exam is very similar. Regardless of which exam the candidate needs to prepare for, the materials that they need to study are almost identical. The AKT and KFP both cover the same subjects in General Practice, only the style of question is different. For more information about specific courses, please refer to the relevant “Course Program”, located on the “Course Options” page.

The courses are designed to prepare candidates for the specific RACGP exam dates. Access to the portal is available until close of business on the examination date.

The Student Portal is carefully designed for each course and is de-activated following each exam. Therefore, extensions to the portal after the exam date are not possible.

All materials are online and are unable to be downloaded. They are available only for the duration of each course.

Should you wish to access our study materials after the relevant courses examination date, you will need to re-enrol into a later course.

As a returning candidate of our written courses, you are entitled to a discount on this enrolment.

Discount codes must be requested prior to registering and utilised at the time of registration. GP Academy is not able to apply a discount or process a discount code after registration is processed.

This is a common question with no simple answer, as the preparation required depends on your prior knowledge and experience. On average, our expert team recommends that candidates spend about 4 to 5 months studying for the AKT/KFP written exams.

It is more difficult to recommend a time frame for CCE preparation, as it can vary depending on the individual. Nonetheless, our expert team recommends a lot of practice as the examiners are looking for how competent you are as a health professional. They are looking to see if you are able to make the patient feel comfortable and satisfied with the care received. Typically, examiners are looking for candidates to establish a strong rapport and provide a clear explanation to the patient before demonstrating competent medical knowledge.

GPs working in rural and remote locations may be eligible for funding under the Rural Health Workforce Scholarship Program (HWSP).  Please contact the Rural Workforce Agency in your state or territory for more information.

Although GP Academy and the expert team provides participants with all the resources required to pass each exam, we cannot guarantee that you will pass your exam by taking a course. Your success is determined by several factors including your effort put into studying, medical knowledge and skills, and our expert team will address your individual needs so you will feel prepared.

Of course! GP Academy courses are beneficial to all GPs regardless of their circumstances. Our courses are very dynamic and the topics discussed are constantly updated. However, there will still be aspects of the RACGP exams that frequently reoccur, so attending these courses will still be helpful.

The usual exam references we use are:

  • Therapeutic Guidelines
  • Checks
  • Australian guidelines
  • AJGP
  • UpToDate

All of the topics that we cover are supported by references. The Student Portal provides you with all the information you need to plan your studying without the hassle of searching for what you need to read.

For the Clinical CCE course, GP Academy provides a large number of additional clinical examination cases, educational videos, case videos and study materials throughout the course. For more information, please read the Information Package and Course Programs for your desired course.
