Maintaining Accreditation

Programs are Accredited for up to five years. During the Accreditation period the Educational Provider is required to submit an annual report to verify it continues to meet the accreditation standard.

Typically, the report includes student enrolment data, evidence of sufficient clinical placements, changes to staffing, progress on any conditions of accreditation and identification of any major changes to the program.

From time to time Providers may be required to report on areas of special interest in the shaping of the education of the profession, e.g. simulation, inter-professional education and/or adoption of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health curriculum framework.
