This document describes the accreditation standards that Medication Management Review (MMR) Pharmacist and Aged Care On-site Pharmacist (ACOP) education programs must meet to receive and maintain accreditation. We assess pharmacist education programs against these standards.

The 2023 accreditation standards have been structured into 5 domains:

• safe and socially accountable practice
• governance and quality
• program
• learner experience
• outcomes and assessment

Each domain includes:

• a standard (statement) outlining the scope of the domain
• criteria against which education providers will provide evidence of compliance
