At the commencement of the<br />

<strong>2018</strong>/<strong>19</strong> FY, the education team<br />

was restructured. During this<br />

process <strong>Sonder</strong> delivered fewer<br />

events than forecasted between<br />

July and September <strong>2018</strong>.<br />

Following this slow start, <strong>Sonder</strong><br />

went on to deliver 65 high<br />

quality continuing professional<br />

development (CPD) events to 1,453<br />

primary healthcare workforce<br />

members.<br />

<strong>Sonder</strong> also teamed up with Local<br />

Health Networks (NALHN, CALHN<br />

and SALHN) and their specialty<br />

teams to facilitate the creation of<br />

a networking platform between<br />

specialists and primary health care<br />

providers.<br />

IMG Education<br />

The Joint Education support<br />

Program (JESP) was launched<br />

in June 2017 in collaboration<br />

with <strong>Sonder</strong> and IMG advocacy<br />

organisations, including the<br />

South Australian Indian Medical<br />

Association (SAIMA), the<br />

Bangladesh Medical Society<br />

of South Australia (BAMSSA),<br />

the South Australian Sri Lanka<br />

Doctors Association (SASDA), the<br />

Pakistani Medical Association<br />

of South Australia (PAMSA), and<br />

the Australian Chinese Medical<br />

Association (ACMA).<br />

JESP is a collaborative project<br />

designed to provide education<br />

help and support to IMGs living in<br />

South Australia who are preparing<br />

to enter the Australian health care<br />

workforce through a series of<br />

workshops.<br />

<strong>Sonder</strong> delivered 11 workshops<br />

during the <strong>2018</strong>/<strong>19</strong> FY and each<br />

session was attended by 15 GPs on<br />

average. <strong>Sonder</strong> received great<br />

feedback and appreciation for this<br />

program from past attendees who<br />

cleared their examinations with<br />

Australian Medical Council and<br />

achieved registration with Medical<br />

Board of Australia.<br />

<strong>Sonder</strong> and our partner advocacy<br />

organisations greatly appreciate<br />

the support of the generous<br />

sponsors.<br />
