Survey our Membership

Request to Survey our Membership

Each year the College receives numerous requests to survey the RANZCOG membership. Only a small number of these applications are approved as RANZCOG is mindful to not overburden the membership and ensure that each survey is appropriate and relevant for the RANZCOG membership.

The College reviews requests from other medical Colleges and external third parties for the College to facilitate the distribution of surveys as per the survey approval process. Successful applicants will be contacted.

For enquiries related to surveys, please email RANZCOG Women’s Health Foundation foundation@ranzcog.edu.au with the subject title: SURVEY.
