Registration requirements for pharmacists
To work as a hospital pharmacist in Australia, individuals must be registered with the Pharmacy Board of Australia.
For people in Australia, this involves completion of a pharmacy program of study approved by the Pharmacy Board of Australia (or a substantially equivalent program) at university. A pharmacist must then obtain provisional registration with the Pharmacy Board of Australia, start supervised practice (in an approved intern training program) and pass the Board’s registration examination. An individual can then apply for general registration with the Pharmacy Board of Australia.
Comprehensive information on the general registration pathway, pharmacy registration types and registration standards are available on the Board’s registration page.
Internationally qualified pharmacists
Pharmacists who qualified overseas in a country other than New Zealand are required to pass an examination conducted by the Australian Pharmacy Council (APC) and complete a period of supervised practice assigned by the Pharmacy Board of Australia. As directed by the Board, the pharmacist must complete any further prescribed assessments before applying for general registration. More information for overseas graduates is available on the Board’s overseas practitioner registration page.
