Help protect the public and set national standards for registered health practitioners

National Boards regulate Australia’s 940,000 registered health practitioners and 180,000 registered students across 16 health professions. These Boards consist of community members and practitioner members (who are registered in the relevant profession) and set the professional standards practitioners must meet to be registered.

Applications are now open for 7 community member vacancies on the following National Boards:

  • Chinese Medicine
  • Medical Radiation Practice
  • Nursing and Midwifery
  • Osteopathy
  • Paramedicine, and
  • Podiatry.

The National Scheme has an important role in ensuring the development of a culturally safe and respectful health workforce that is
responsive to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples health and contributes to the elimination of racism in the provision of health
services.

To achieve this, we have committed to increasing Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander leadership and voices on National Boards and 
warmly invite Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples to apply.

If you are an Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander person and would like to talk about these opportunities, please email mobvoices@ahpra.gov.au.

The National Scheme is also committed to providing an environment that embraces and values equity, diversity and inclusion. We strongly encourage people of all abilities and backgrounds to apply, particularly Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples, culturally diverse people, people with a disability, carers of a person with a disability, people living in rural or remote areas of Australia and people who identify as LGBTIQA+. If you need an adjustment or support during the recruitment process, we encourage you to advise us at the time of application.
