Latest news about regestration in Australia
Here my findings are;
Overseas trained pharmacists seeking registration in Australia will be required to undertake the following assessments:
- Assessment of qualifications to determine comparability with an Australian pharmacy qualification
- Assessment of Knowledge of Pharmaceutical Sciences (KAPS), or Competency Assessment of Overseas Pharmacists (CAOP)
Following satisfactory completion of the English language requirements and the two assessments, candidates will need to complete the following to be eligible for full registration, which will include:
- - a period of supervised practice in a pharmacy in Australia
- - an intern training program
- - a current Australian senior First aid certificate Level 2
- - a written competency examination
- - an oral examination
- - satisfactory English language test result obtained at the one sitting
All interns completing the necessary process will undergo criminal history checks prior to being registered.
The APC will no longer be involved with candidates beyond the two initial assessments and the candidates (interns) will undertake the registration process under the Pharmacy Board of Australia. All enquiries regarding that process should be directed to:
