Postgraduate Training Licensees
A Postgraduate Training License (PTL) is issued to residents who are enrolled in a California ACGME-accredited postgraduate training program. The resident may engage in the practice of medicine only in connection with their duties as a resident in the approved training program, including its affiliated sites, or under those conditions as are approved in writing by the director of their program.
Postgraduate Training License Renewal
A postgraduate training license does not need to be renewed. However, if the resident transfers to another program, is terminated, placed on probation/remediation, resigns, takes a leave of absence, or has any other program change that would affect the resident's anticipated end date of the program, a Program Status Update/Change Form (Form PSU) is required from the program director within 30 days.
