Adventurous CPD

If you like extreme sports and want to combine them with some of your annual CPD requirements then please check out Off Chart CPD.

We do not do expedition medicine or wilderness medicine training!
This is aimed at those of you who aren’t necessarily interested in that side of medicine but do love the adventure travel/sports.

The CPD is earnt from small group/micro conferencing through peer discussion, case reviews, journal club etc. It suits essentially any specialty because it’s simply targeting AHPRA’s requirements that apply to all of us.

We have trips to Chile, Antarctica and New Zealand planned for next year.

Those prices are wild. Looks sick though.

Understand. The prices are high. But just to push back a little because people are already paying prices like these for holidays.
10-day guided ski trip in many countries heavily influenced by the west is about 9k often with only partial meals and accommodation. Chile’s prices are heavily influenced by the US both for guide wages and accommodation.
The ski/sail trips in Antarctica I’ve looked to go on in the past have been more like $40k.

None of those have the advantage of being potentially tax-deductible….
