     of referees
    PMCV DOES NOT chase up referees to complete the Referee Assessment Form, it is your responsibility to
     ensure your nominated referees complete the form.

     directly to ensure they have received the email.
    PMCV can re-send referee email request (please email computermatching@pmcv.com.au if you would
     like a Referee Assessment Form email request to be re-sent).
    Referee Assessment Forms should be from:
           For new applicants to Haematology Advanced Training, at least one of the three referee reports
              should be from a current supervisor. One referee report must be from a Nurse, Allied Health
              Practitioner or Senior Scientist.
           For existing Haematology Advanced trainees, the most recent supervisor report should be
              provided in addition to the three referee reports. One referee report must be from a Nurse,
              Allied Health Practitioner or Senior Scientist.
