We accredit pharmacist education programs in Australia including those for:

  • Medication Management Review (MMR) Pharmacists
  • Aged Care On-site Pharmacists (ACOP)
  • Pharmacist Prescribers.

Find out how an organisation can seek accreditation of a pharmacist education program.

These programs are for currently registered pharmacists. They are not programs that lead to registration as a pharmacist.

See below for our lists of accredited pharmacist education programs. This means these programs meet our standards and have been granted 'accreditation' or 'accreditation with conditions'.

Education providers that have submitted an accreditation application for their program which has progressed to an advanced stage of the accreditation process are listed in the table below as 'seeking accreditation'.

Accreditation definitions

Accredited

An 'accredited pharmacist education program' meets all criteria in the relevant program accreditation standards.

Accredited with conditions

A pharmacist education program that is 'accredited with conditions' either:

  • fully meets all criteria in the relevant program accreditation standards, OR
  • substantially meets these standards, and is expected to fully meet them in a reasonable time frame

To be 'accredited with conditions', the program must report to us as required. Education providers can still deliver these programs, and learners can still complete these programs.
