The Council of Medical Colleges (CMC) was established in
2001 to enable the Medical Colleges to discuss issues of common
interest, to share knowledge, and to coordinate college objectives
and policies.
CMC acts as the sounding board and voice of the collective
Medical Colleges in New Zealand. Through an extensive communication
network and the meeting of key players in the Medical College
community, CMC is able to provide well-informed opinions and advice
to Ministers, government agencies and other relevant bodies on
health, post graduate medical training, and workforce
issues.
Through the voluntary, co-operative and coordinated action
of its members, CMC seeks to broaden the collective knowledge base.
This enables the Medical Colleges to provide the community with the
highest quality medical care and to improve, protect, and promote
the public health.
