Advanced credentials
May 26, 2014
THE Advanced Practice
Credentialing Committee (APCC)
met on 01 May for the first time,
and has released the first drafts of
the credential evaluation standards,
policies and processes for public
consultation.
The Australian Pharmacy Council
(APC) said the credentialing system
would be piloted this year with full
implementation by early next year.
The draft gives a timeline for
implementation as well as outlining
five areas the Advanced Pharmacy
Practice Framework identified as
important for development in, and
demonstration of, advanced levels
of practice; expert professional
practice; networking, leadership
and influence which includes
professional and ethical practice;
communication, collaboration
and teamwork; leadership and
management; critical analysis,
research and education.
Thirty competencies are located
across these five areas at three
stages of development.
