Programs

Choose the program that matches your Medical Board concern

Each program is a set of courses in a deliberate order, enrolled in once. You pay a single price and every course in the program unlocks in your account immediately. Prefer to pick your own? Browse all courses individually.

If a notification has been made about you, contact your medical indemnity insurer first. These programs are education. They support your own reflection and give you a dated record of the learning you completed. They do not satisfy, discharge or resolve any regulatory requirement, condition or undertaking, and no course can guarantee an outcome.

Notification & Investigation Response

7 courses14 hours of learning1 enrolment

Choose this if: You have received a notification or investigation letter about your medical practice.

Who this program is for

Medical practitioners who have received correspondence from Ahpra or the Medical Board and need to work through the process, and their own reflection, in an ordered way rather than reactively.

Why this program

  • Opens with Professionalism and Professional Standards for Doctors, the core professionalism course written to Good Medical Practice.
  • Follows the sequence the Board actually examines: fitness to practise, then insight, then reflection, then remediation.
  • Explains the stages from first letter to outcome, so the correspondence stops being disorienting.
  • Produces a dated written record of the learning you completed and the changes you identified.
  • Closes with rebuilding standing with patients and colleagues once a matter concludes.

The three a Board weighs most

Insight, Reflection & Remediation

4 courses8 hours of learning1 enrolment

Choose this if: You need to evidence insight, reflection and remediation for any concern.

Who this program is for

Doctors at any stage of a Board matter who need the three things a National Board weighs most, in the order it weighs them, without the topic-specific content.

Why this program

  • Isolates the three elements a Board assesses: insight into what happened, credible reflection, and documented remediation.
  • Use it alone, or add it to a topic program if you have already covered the clinical subject matter.
  • Explains why a reflective account that describes events reads differently from one that demonstrates understanding.
  • Produces the written record that a response to the Board is built around.

Why this program

  • Opens with Professionalism and Professional Standards for Doctors, the core professionalism course written to Good Medical Practice.

Choose this if: The concern relates to communication, attitude, or how an adverse event was handled.

Who this program is for

Choose this if: The concern relates to records, certificates, billing, or an undisclosed interest.

Who this program is for

Doctors facing a concern about clinical records, retrospective amendment, medical certificates and reports, Medicare or private billing, or an undisclosed commercial interest.

Why this program

  • Opens with Ethics and Ethical Standards for Doctors, the core ethics course written to Good Medical Practice.
  • Boards treat honesty as non-negotiable, and a dishonest response escalates a matter faster than the original conduct.
  • Undocumented clinical reasoning is indistinguishable from absent reasoning when a file is reviewed.
  • Covers medical certificates and reports, where accuracy is a registration issue rather than an administrative one.
  • Addresses declarations, referral interests and transparent billing.

Curriculum

Ten modules, worked through Australian clinical scenarios

The two core courses follow this structure. The topic courses in the catalogue above go deeper on a single module.

01Ethics in Australian Practice
Autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence and justice as working tools rather than abstractions, plus a structured decision method you can apply under time pressure.
  • Where principles conflict, and how to reason transparently
  • The relationship between ethics, law and professional standards
  • Documenting an ethical decision so it can be understood later
02Professionalism in Practice
Professional responsibility beyond the clinical task: accountability, working within competence, reflection, and the public trust registration represents.
  • What Good Medical Practice expects day to day
  • Scope of practice and knowing when to decline or refer
  • Professional behaviour toward colleagues and students
03Professional Boundaries
The professional relationship, boundary crossings versus violations, and the drift pattern that precedes most boundary notifications.
  • Dual relationships in rural and small-community practice
  • Treating or serving family, friends and staff
  • Digital contact, social media and after-hours messaging
04Confidentiality & Privacy
Handling patient and client information under the National Law, privacy legislation and your code, including the practical failure points.
  • Disclosure to family, employers, insurers and police
  • Shared records, secure messaging and handover
  • Corridor conversations, screens and incidental disclosure
05Consent & Shared Decision-Making
Capacity, material risk, communicating options and documenting refusal.
  • Consent as a process rather than a signature
  • Substitute decision-makers and advance care directives
  • Consent in telehealth and time-critical settings
06Communication & Trust
The communication failures that generate complaints, and the techniques that prevent them.
  • Difficult conversations and delivering unwelcome news
  • Responding to a complaint without escalating it
  • Working with interpreters and health literacy limits
07Probity & Integrity
Honesty as a registration issue: billing, gifts, conflicts of interest, declarations and advertising.
  • Financial and commercial conflicts, disclosed and managed
  • Certificates, reports and honest attestation
  • Advertising obligations under the National Law
08Documentation & Accountability
Records that stand up to later scrutiny: contemporaneous, accurate, complete and legible.
  • Recording reasoning, not just findings
  • Amending records correctly and never retrospectively without marking it
  • What a reviewer looks for in a file
09Ethics, Professionalism & CPD
How learning needs, reflection and educational activities connect to your CPD requirement.
  • Turning an incident into an identified learning need
  • Writing a reflection that is credible and specific
  • Evidence retention and audit readiness
10Application, Reflection & Improvement
Australian case studies, the scenario assessment, and a personal action plan you complete and keep.
  • Case-based application of every preceding module
  • Structured reflection template
  • Action plan with review date
Assessment & reflection

How completion is tested and what evidence you receive

Assessment

  • 15 questions per course: knowledge checks plus applied scenario questions.
  • Pass mark 80%. Unlimited attempts, with feedback on incorrect responses.
  • Scenario questions require you to choose and justify a course of action, not to define a term.
  • The assessment outcome is recorded on your certificate.

Reflection activity

  • A structured template: what you learned, why it matters in your practice, what you will change.
  • A personal action plan with specific steps and a nominated review date.
  • Downloadable separately so you can attach it to your CPD record.
  • Written to prompt the specificity a reviewer looks for, rather than generic statements of intent.
Completion evidence

Exactly what you receive when you finish

✓Learner name as entered at enrolment.
✓Course title and course ID / version number.
✓Completion date, issued immediately on passing.
✓Nominal duration, stated as designed learning time.
✓Assessment outcome and pass mark achieved.
✓Provider name and contact details for verification.
✓A downloadable reflection and action plan document.

Audience

Which doctors these courses are written for

All courses are open to any practitioner. The content below describes how each group typically uses them.

General registration

Doctors with general registration looking for structured ethics and professionalism learning to log as an educational activity.

Specialists

Specialists whose college or CPD home sets specialist high-level requirements. Check those separately; these courses do not address them.

International medical graduates

Doctors new to Australian practice who want the Australian professional standards framework explained directly. Not part of any registration pathway.

Registrars and returners

Trainees, registrars and doctors returning to practice consolidating professional standards alongside clinical training.

CPD explained

50 hours of CPD each year, through an AMC-accredited CPD home

Under the Medical Board's CPD registration standard, registered medical practitioners must belong to a CPD home accredited by the Australian Medical Council (unless exempt), write an annual professional development plan, and complete at least 50 hours of CPD each year.

01

Professional development plan

A written annual plan identifying your learning needs, prepared before you start your CPD year.

You write it
02

Your CPD home

An AMC-accredited organisation that delivers your CPD program, holds your record, and reports compliance to the Board.

You must belong to one
03

50 hours of activity

Minimum 12.5 hours educational activities, 25 hours reviewing performance and measuring outcomes (at least 5 of each), 12.5 hours your choice.

Our courses sit here
04

Evidence & annual compliance

You record activities, retain certificates, self-evaluate at year end, and your CPD home reports compliance.

You retain the certificate
An organisation can offer an educational activity that doctors undertake and log toward their CPD without that organisation being a CPD home. The AMC accredits CPD homes; it does not accredit individual CPD activities. Ahpra Courses is in the first category.

Can this count toward my CPD?

Usually, yes, as an educational activity. But the decision is not ours to make, and no National Board pre-approves individual courses.

Before you rely on any hours from this or any provider

  • Confirm with your own CPD home whether an external online educational activity is eligible and how to record it.
  • Record the hours you actually spent, not a number printed on a certificate.
  • Retain your certificate for the period your CPD home specifies.
  • If you are a specialist, check any specialist high-level requirements set by your college or CPD home.
  • These courses do not replace your CPD program, your CPD home, or your professional development plan.
Who does what

Ahpra, your Board, and us

A note on how this site is named

Our domain refers to the regulatory scheme our content is about. It does not indicate any affiliation with, endorsement by, or accreditation from Ahpra or the National Boards. If any page on this site suggests otherwise, tell us and we will correct it.

The Australian regulatory picture  ·  2024/25
13,327
notifications received by Ahpra about health practitioners nationally, up around 19% on the previous year.
16,209
practitioners nationally had a notification made about them during the year.
Clinical care
was the single most common concern raised, followed by communication.
Conduct
rather than clinical skill alone is what most notifications actually describe.

For doctors, conduct and communication carry more regulatory exposure than clinical skill alone. Medical practitioners attract more notifications than any other profession, and the concerns most often raised are the standard of clinical care and the way it was communicated and recorded.

Case-based learning

Six medical scenarios worked through in full

Each case follows the same structure: scenario, decision point, the ethical and professional issues, the relevant standard, a better response, and a reflection question. Cases are composites written for teaching and do not describe identifiable people or matters.

Case 01 · Confidentiality

Disclosure to an adult child

A patient's adult daughter calls the practice, distressed, asking about her mother's recent imaging. She is recorded as the emergency contact.

Core issue
Emergency contact status is not consent to disclose.
Better response
Neither confirm nor deny that the patient attended; explain the constraint; offer to contact the patient for consent.
Case 02 · Boundaries

A relationship that developed through messaging

A doctor begins replying to a patient's texts between consultations, then about non-clinical matters, then socially. No single message felt like a violation.

Core issue
Boundary drift is cumulative, and visible to others before it is visible to you.
Better response
Name the drift, re-establish the clinical frame in writing, seek senior advice, and consider transferring care.
Case 03 · Prescribing

A repeat prescription issued without review

A long-term patient requests an early repeat of a Schedule 8 medicine by phone. The doctor issues it, intending to review at the next visit, which does not happen for months.

Core issue
Convenience prescribing without review is assessed as a prescribing decision, not an administrative one.
Better response
Check the real-time prescription monitoring system, document the clinical reasoning, and set a hard review date before issuing.
Case 04 · Documentation

Reasoning that was never recorded

A sound decision to observe rather than image was made and explained to the patient. The record shows the examination findings and nothing else.

Core issue
Undocumented reasoning is indistinguishable from absent reasoning on later review.
Better response
Record the differential considered, why observation was chosen, and the safety-netting advice given.
Case 05 · Advertising

A cosmetic result overstated online

A doctor's clinic posts before-and-after images with a patient's quote and a claim about typical results.

Core issue
Advertising of regulated health services is itself regulated, and testimonials are restricted under the National Law.
Better response
Remove testimonial content, qualify or remove outcome claims, and audit third-party pages the practice controls.
Case 06 · Open disclosure

A medication error and the conversation after it

A prescribing error causes a short admission. The doctor is unsure how much to say, and whether an apology admits liability.

Core issue
Delay and vagueness after an event generate more complaints than the event itself.
Better response
A prompt factual account, an apology for the harm, an explanation of what happens next, and a documented follow-up.
Read this carefully

If you are undertaking education after a notification or complaint

Contact your medical indemnity insurer first

Before you respond to anything, enrol in anything, or write anything down about the matter, get advice. That call comes before this page.

What a course can support

  • Your own structured reflection on what happened and why it mattered.
  • Identifying specific, concrete changes to your practice.
  • Producing a dated record of learning you completed.

What no course can do

  • Satisfy, discharge or resolve a regulatory requirement, condition or undertaking.
  • Guarantee any outcome in a notification, investigation or panel matter.
  • Replace advice from your indemnity insurer, lawyer or employer.
  • Be represented to a Board as remediation that a Board has accepted.
If a Board, tribunal or employer has specified education as part of a condition or undertaking, the required education is defined by that instrument. Have your insurer or lawyer confirm that any course meets it before you enrol.

How we source, review and correct regulatory content

Sourcing

  • Primary source first. Every regulatory statement is checked against the regulator's own published document, not a secondary summary.
  • Secondary sources are used only for context and identified as such.
  • Statistics are attributed to the specific report and reporting period.

Review and correction

  • Every course carries a version number and a last-reviewed date.
  • Regulatory content is reviewed at least annually, and sooner when a Board publishes an amended standard.
  • Substantive corrections are logged in the course update history.
  • To report an error, contact us. We correct confirmed errors promptly.

Claims we do not make

We do not describe any course as Ahpra approved, Ahpra accredited or Board approved, because none of those things exist for individual CPD activities. We do not claim that a course guarantees CPD compliance, protects registration, resolves a notification, or satisfies a remediation requirement.

Answers

Medical CPD, accreditation and course questions

The questions doctors actually ask before enrolling, answered plainly.

Is ethics CPD required for Australian doctors?
No National Board requires a standalone ethics course. What is required is CPD relevant to your context or scope of practice, based on identified learning needs. Ethics and professionalism learning can sit within that, and it addresses the areas that generate the most regulatory concern.
Can an ethics course count toward my CPD?
Generally yes, as an educational activity, provided it is relevant to your scope of practice and you record it correctly. The Medical Board of Australia does not pre-approve activities, so the classification and record are yours to make.
Do I need an AMC-accredited CPD home?
Yes. Under the Medical Board's CPD registration standard, registered medical practitioners must participate in a CPD program offered by a CPD home accredited by the Australian Medical Council, unless an exemption applies. Ahpra Courses is not a CPD home and does not replace one.
How many CPD hours do doctors need each year?
At least 50 hours: a minimum of 12.5 hours of educational activities, 25 hours across reviewing performance and measuring outcomes with at least five hours of each, and 12.5 hours of your choosing. You also need a written annual professional development plan.
Is this course suitable for specialists?
The content is written for medical practitioners generally rather than a single specialty. Specialists should note that their college or CPD home may set specialist high-level requirements that these courses do not address.
Is this course Ahpra accredited?
No. Ahpra does not accredit CPD courses, and neither does any National Board accredit individual commercial activities. Treat any provider claiming an Ahpra-accredited or Ahpra-approved course with caution.
Is this course approved by the Medical Board of Australia?
No. The Medical Board of Australia sets registration standards and publishes codes and guidelines. It does not approve or endorse individual commercial courses. Our content is written with reference to its published standards, which is a different thing from approval.
How long does each course take?
Each course is designed as approximately two hours of self-paced learning, including the assessment and reflection activity. Record the time you actually spend, according to your own Board's rules.
Can this course support learning related to a complaint or notification?
It can support your own structured reflection and learning, and the certificate documents what you completed and when. It does not satisfy, discharge or resolve any regulatory requirement, condition or undertaking. If a notification has been made about you, contact your medical indemnity insurer before taking any step, including enrolling in education.
What evidence do I receive after completion?
A dated certificate showing your name, course title, course version, completion date, nominal duration and assessment outcome, plus a permanent course record in your account and a downloadable reflection document.
Who wrote and reviewed the course?
The courses are written and reviewed by Dr Richard, a practising clinician with postgraduate training in healthcare law and ethics. His qualifications, profile and the review date are published on this page.
How often is the course updated?
Every course carries a version number and a last-reviewed date. Regulatory content is reviewed at least annually, and sooner when the Medical Board of Australia publishes a new or amended standard, code or guideline affecting the material.
