PHARMACY students who are set to complete their university training within the next three months and have their internship year arrangements signed off, can now apply to the Pharmacy Board of Australia for provisional registration.
Students can now set up an account with the Board using the online service portal, which they can use to upload required documentation including proof that they have met the registration standards, certified copies of photo ID, completed and signed application for approval of supervised practice, and paid fees.
"Applying before you finish study means we can start assessing your application while we wait for your graduate results," the Board said.
"Provisional registration with the Pharmacy Board of Australia (the Board) is required before you can start working under supervision as a pharmacist."
The Board noted that it cannot complete the applications until it receives the student's graduate results from their university.
"If you've submitted everything you need to prove you've met the requirements for registration, we aim to finalise your application within two weeks of receiving your graduate results," the Board said.
