ASPM Training
ASPM provides a supportive space for doctors to connect while undertaking initial, ongoing, and advanced training in psychological medicine. As GPs, we do the complex work of whole person care, and as such, we value training from within the wealth of experience amongst our GP colleagues. As all training is accredited by the RACGP and ACRRM, ASPM provides members with a ‘one-stop shop’ for CPD points.
ASPM’s independent Academic Advisory Panel upholds high educational standards by established processes for consistent, constructive feedback, facilitating continuous improvement across all our training programs. We are constantly innovating further topics that are of interest to our membership base.

Training Pathway
Professional Peer Reflection Group Facilitator Training
PPRG Facilitator Training Process:
- Cost of Training (over half a year): $980.
- This includes free attendance to a cycle of PPRG plus five one-to-one debrief sessions with an experienced facilitator.
- Trainees will attend 4 sessions with one experienced facilitator and be given opportunity to facilitate a part of one session.
- Trainee will attend one session with another experienced facilitator and be given opportunity to facilitate a part of that session.
- Trainees therefore attend 5 sessions in total over a half year cycle
- Trainees will receive 30 min training / reflection session with the experienced facilitator afterwards (five x 30 min training / reflection sessions in total)
- Trainees can become qualified by approval of two experienced facilitators in consultation
- If a trainee is not deemed eligible to become a qualified ASPM PPRG facilitator after consultation by two experienced facilitators, the decision by the two experienced facilitators is final and will not be revised or negotiated. No refund to the application fee will be issued.
- The trainee will be notified of the result of the qualification process in writing.
