Abstract

Background: Many internal and external obstacles, must be overcome when establishing a new medical school, or when radically revising an existing medical curriculum.Aims: Twenty-five years after the Flinders University curriculum was introduced as the first graduate-entry medical programme (GEMP) in Australia, we aim at describing how it has been adopted and adapted by several other schools, in Australia and in Europe (UK, Ireland, and Portugal).Method/Results: This paper reports on the experience of four schools establishing a new medical school or new curriculum at different times and in different settings.Conclusions: We believe that these experiences might be of interest to others contemplating a similar development.
