Apply for Recognition

**Before applying please read through the Guidelines for Recognition**

The next meeting is being planned for August 2023.

The deadline for receiving applications to review at the above noted meeting is Friday 14 July 2023.

To apply for recognition please complete the below application form. To review the forms to be uploaded and submitted with the application please see the Information and Forms for Endoscopy Training Recognition. 

Please note ALL forms including supervisor reports are required prior to the meeting.

Incomplete applications will be held for future meetings.

 

Those applying under the International Practitioner Pathway for JAG or Australian CCRTGE recognised endoscopists must upload documentary evidence also (e.g. JAG certificate, CCRTGE letter). NZCCRTGE reserves the right to confirm the authenticity of these documents where required. A small application fee will be applied to cover administration costs.

Applications for recognition must submit their documents via the on-line form below. 

The Application Fee of $300.00 is payable for each pathway applied for with the exception of a $50 administration fee for those applying for recognition of GESA/JAG recognised training.  An invoice will be sent once the application is received.

If you have already gained recognition of training in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy via the NZCCRTGE (including Grandfathering) you may request that your details be included in the online searchable register. Inclusion on the register is voluntary and will display your name and limited information about your pathway to recognition of training. If you wish to withdraw your details from the register you may send the request via this form. Please upload your recognition of training letter, which NZCCRTGE will then cross-reference with the records held. If you do not have a copy of your letter, please provide details in the notes regarding endoscopy type, pathway and year that you hold recognition for and we will try to confirm your details in the database. There is no additional application fee to opt into the register for endoscopists who have gained recognition of training via NZCCRTGE.
