The Royal College of Pathologists of Australasia requires Fellows and Affiliates of the College in active practice to participate in the RCPA Continuing Professional Development Program (CPDP) or an equivalent formally structured program, in order to provide evidence of their continuing medical education and of the maintenance of professional standards in the practice of pathology.
Participation in Continual Medical Education (CME) such as the RCPA CPDP or an equally structured program was made mandatory from January 2006.
Please take the time to read the Guidelines and familiarise yourself with the new program. Please note those documents are for Members only.
