Students called to pre-register
October 29, 2010

THE Australian Health
Practitioner Regulation Agency is
asking students to pre-apply for
registration in the four to six weeks
leading up to the completion of
their course.
Part of the new streamlined
registration process, the request is
designed to help new graduates
avoid delays during peak periods.
The pre-registration process
divides students into two groups,
each with different application
requirements.
The first grouping applies to those
who have never registered or been
registered in Australia or overseas.
The process for pre-registration
for this group (Group A) requires
students to complete an application
form on the APHRA website and
post it to the Agency along with all
required documentation, as well as
the official academic qualification
(if issued) and a personal (not
student) email address.
The Group B category pertains to
students who have been registered
in a health profession either in
Australia or overseas.
Students in Group B have to go
through the same process of
posting their application to AHPRA
as Group A, with the only difference
being that they will have an
alternate application form.
As part of the pre-registration
process, AHPRA is also encouraging
students to familiarise themselves
with the criminal history, English
language, professional indemnity
insurance, recency of practice and
CPD Pharmacy Board Registration
Standards, (available to view at
www.pharmacyboard.gov.au).
In particular APHRA has stressed
the importance of meeting the
English language requirements,
adding that overseas students may
need to provide evidence that they
meet the registration standard.
