1. All applications for training programs are available in the Makati Medical Center website (www.makatimed.net.ph).

 

2. All applications are reviewed by the training committee of the department/section where the applicant wishes to train. The composition of such committee is made at the discretion of the department chairman. The committee has the prerogative to conduct interviews and administer written examinations as methods of screening the applicants and choosing the successful candidates.

 

3. No resident or fellow may start training in the hospital until all the requirements are completed, their contract is signed, and the Makati Medical Center identification card is issued.

For the remaining psychological tests results kept at DMER, retention period will be within one month after the trainee’s completion of training.

Updating of 201 files is done by HRMDD.
