Accreditation authorities and the assessment of overseas qualified practitioners
Some accreditation authorities also assist with processes related to the assessment of overseas qualified practitioners. The assessment processes for overseas qualified practitioners vary by profession.
Four accreditation authorities assist with the assessment of authorities in other countries who conduct examinations relevant to registration in a health profession, or accredit programs of study relevant to registration in a health profession, to decide whether persons who successfully complete those examinations or programs of study have the knowledge, clinical skills and professional attributes necessary to practise the profession in Australia.
