PHARMACY students who will soon complete an approved program of study can go online immediately to apply for provisional registration before they graduate, the Pharmacy Board of Australia has announced.
In addition to making an online application for provisional registration, graduates must lodge a separate application for approval of supervised practice.
They cannot start supervised practice (internship) until both of these applications have been received and then approved by the Board, which can take place once the education provider has advised that the student is eligible to graduate.
The supervised practice during provisional registration is one of the requirements that must be met in order to be eligible for general registration as a pharmacist in Australia at the end of the internship period.
