Welcome to the Australian Pharmacy Council Website

The Australian Pharmacy Council Inc was formed in 2002 as the national body for Australian State and Territory authorities responsible for the registration of pharmacists. The Pharmacy Council of New Zealand is an associate member.

The principal purposes of the Australian Pharmacy Council are to:
•	provide leadership in developing and implementing nationally consistent policies, processes and approaches to pharmacy practice, regulation and registration
•	accredit pharmacy schools and programs; and authorising agencies to accredit continuing professional development activities
•	conduct examinations towards eligibility for registration
•	assess the qualifications and skills of pharmacy graduates towards Australian registration and permanent residency

The Australian Pharmacy Council is an association incorporated in the Australian Capital Territory and an Australian Registrable Body under the Australian Securities and Investments Commission. It is funded by member grants and by fees for its accreditation, assessment and examination services.
