In short
What are Ahpra remediation courses?
Ahpra remediation courses are self-paced online courses taken by a health practitioner to evidence insight, reflection and remediation in response to a notification made about them to Ahpra, their National Board, or the co-regulator that handles notifications in their state. They are not an Ahpra product, and no National Board approves, accredits or endorses any provider’s courses. What they give you is independent, dated evidence that you identified the concern and acted on it — and when.
The courses on this site are written to the code your own Board applies — there are ten profession pages, each written to one Board’s standards, and the section below points you to yours. Nine form a Core Set that applies to any notification, whatever the allegation and whatever your profession; the remaining fifteen are grouped by the type of concern raised. Every course carries 2 CPD hours and issues a certificate from Healthcare Ethics Courses on completion, recording the course title, the hours and the date.
No course decides a notification, and no provider can promise an outcome. What matters is who reads the evidence, and when. Ahpra and the Board are answering a question about risk rather than punishment — is this likely to happen again? If a matter goes further, a tribunal reads the same file cold, months later, without having met you. Remediation completed while a matter is open reads as engagement; the identical material assembled the week before a decision reads as compliance.

A notification to Ahpra and your National Board is one of the hardest things a practitioner deals with, and it can arrive at a difficult time. Whether the concern is about conduct, performance or health, and whether it came from a patient, a colleague, an employer or a mandatory notification made about you, the question the Board is answering is the same one: is the public at risk, and is this likely to happen again? Demonstrating active, documented remediation is one of the few parts of that process still within your control while everything else waits.
These courses are written for practitioners responding to concerns raised with Ahpra and their National Board, and for those dealing with the NSW Councils, the HCCC or the OHO instead (who handles your notification). Which code your conduct is measured against depends on your registration: the Medical Board applies Good medical practice, the Nursing and Midwifery Board its own two codes, the Psychology Board its own code since 1 December 2025, and twelve professions share one Code of conduct. Each profession page is written to the right one. Structured study, written reflection and demonstrable change are what a Board — and later, if it comes to it, a tribunal — treats as evidence of insight rather than assertion of it.
Every course issues a certificate from Healthcare Ethics Courses on completion, recording 2 CPD hours, the course title and the date. The courses are written to Ahpra and National Board standards but are not formally accredited by any external body, and you should confirm with the Board how the hours are recorded against your own CPD home requirements. A certificate evidences attendance; attached to your own written reflection it evidences insight, and belongs in a remediation plan, a written response to the Board, or evidence filed with a tribunal.
Why it matters
What a National Board is actually assessing — and how a certificated course helps
Once the facts are settled, a National Board is answering a question about risk rather than punishment: is this likely to happen again? These are the six things that decide how your response reads, and what a course can contribute to each.
Four things, and the order matters
Whether you understand what went wrong. Whether you accept responsibility for your part in it. Whether you recognise the effect it had — on the patient, on colleagues, and on public confidence in the profession. And whether you can show meaningful change as a result. A response can supply the first and the last and leave out the middle two.
Candour is assessed alongside the clinical facts
What happened clinically can be the shortest part of a response. What a Board examines is whether you told the patient, whether you escalated at the time, and what has changed since. A response that defends the clinical decision but does not reach those three things does not answer the question the Board is asking.
Records are judged twice
Once as clinical care and once as evidence. Late entries, gaps and retrospective additions are looked at closely. Amending a record after you know a concern has been raised turns a clinical matter into a probity one, which is a far harder allegation to answer. Do not alter an entry once a notification exists.
Evidence somebody else can verify
Your own account of your own improvement is the weakest evidence available, and every practitioner offers it. A dated certificate issued by an external provider is not your account — it is a record that exists independently of you, showing what you studied and when. Timing matters too: study completed while a matter is open reads as engagement, while the identical material assembled in the fortnight before a decision reads as compliance.
Written to your Board’s code, grouped by the concern raised
A conduct notification is measured against your own Board’s code and the guidelines beneath it, not against general professional-development material. Each profession page addresses the standards cited in notifications about that profession, in the terminology the Board itself uses, and covers immediate action, mandatory notifications, the National Law, and the co-regulatory arrangements in New South Wales and Queensland. Read the allegation in your letter, choose the matching concern, and the page shows the Core Set alongside the courses that address that concern directly.
Beginning concedes nothing — and advisers ask for it
Undertaking remediation is not an admission of anything. It is one of the few parts of this process entirely within your control while everything else waits, whether you face a conduct allegation (unprofessional conduct or professional misconduct), a performance assessment (unsatisfactory professional performance), a health or impairment matter, or a mandatory notification made about you. Enrol and start the same day, with nothing to schedule. Indemnity insurers, unions and health law practices can advise practitioners facing a notification to undertake structured, documented study as part of a remediation plan; we are recommended by advisers on that basis, which is not endorsement by any of them, and we do not claim it is.
Before anything else
Who handles your Ahpra notification — Ahpra, a NSW Council, or the OHO?
The answer depends on the state you practise in, and for roughly half the registered practitioners in Australia the obvious answer is the wrong one. Check the letterhead on your letter before you do anything else.
Outside New South Wales and Queensland
Ahpra and your National Board receive and manage the notification. The Board decides what action, if any, is needed to protect the public, and Ahpra runs the process on its behalf.
New South Wales
Ahpra and the National Board have no role. NSW did not adopt Part 8 of the National Law, so the Council for your own profession works with the Health Care Complaints Commission. The two consult and decide together which of them manages your matter. There are fifteen such Councils, one per National Board.
Queensland
The Office of the Health Ombudsman receives every complaint about a health practitioner in the state. It retains the most serious matters itself and may refer others on to Ahpra and the National Board.
Mandatory notifications
The same three destinations apply when a practitioner, employer or education provider reports notifiable conduct. If you are the subject of one, it does not change what is asked of you, only who is asking.
What does not change
Wherever your matter sits, what is asked of you is the same: insight into what happened, reflection set down in your own words, and remediation you can evidence. That is what the Core Ahpra/National Board Remediation Set above is built around.
What a course cannot do
No course decides a notification, and no provider can promise an outcome. What a dated certificate from an external provider can do is evidence that you acted, and when.
Key terms
What Ahpra and the National Boards mean by insight, reflection and remediation
These terms recur throughout regulatory correspondence. They are not interchangeable, and being clear about which one a letter is asking for makes a practical difference to how you respond.
- Notification
- The Australian term for a concern raised about a registered practitioner. It is the start of a process, not a finding. Who receives it depends on where you practise: Ahpra and your National Board outside New South Wales and Queensland, your profession’s Council working with the Health Care Complaints Commission in New South Wales, and the Office of the Health Ombudsman in Queensland.
- Immediate action
- Your National Board restricting or suspending your registration while a matter is still being investigated, where it considers that necessary to protect the public. It is protective rather than punitive and is not a finding against you. It follows a show cause process with a short window to respond.
- Impairment
- A physical or mental impairment, disability, condition or disorder, including substance abuse or dependence, that detrimentally affects or is likely to affect your capacity to practise. The National Law treats it as a health matter, which can include a health assessment, and a finding of impairment is not a finding of misconduct.
- Unsatisfactory professional performance
- Knowledge, skill or judgement, or the care exercised, below the standard reasonably expected of a practitioner of equivalent training or experience. It is the performance ground, dealt with through a performance assessment rather than a conduct process, and the outcome can include further education.
- Fitness to practise
- The umbrella phrase practitioners, employers and the UK regulators use for whether someone should be practising at all. The National Law does not use it as a ground; it names four: impairment, unsatisfactory professional performance, unprofessional conduct and professional misconduct. Our Fitness to Practise courses are written to those four grounds.
- Unprofessional conduct and professional misconduct
- Two different thresholds under the National Law. Unprofessional conduct is conduct below the standard reasonably expected of a practitioner of equivalent training or experience. Professional misconduct is more serious, and includes conduct substantially below that standard. Which term a letter uses tells you a great deal about how the matter is being treated.
- Insight
- Understanding what went wrong, why it happened, and the effect it had on the patient, on colleagues and on public confidence in the profession. Insight can be weighed at any stage, whatever the allegation, and a finding can name it as lacking.
- Reflection
- Setting that understanding down honestly and in your own words, including what you would do differently and what you have already changed. Reflection is the written record of insight, which is why the two can be confused.
- Remediation
- The concrete steps taken so the same thing does not happen again — training, supervision, changes to how you work — together with evidence that they happened. Insight without remediation is an account; remediation without insight is a certificate.
These descriptions are our summary of how the terms are used in Australian regulatory practice. They are not quotations from Ahpra or any National Board, and they are not legal advice. Your indemnity insurer, union or lawyer should advise on your own case.

healthcareethicsaustralia.comQuestions practitioners ask us
Frequently asked questions
Which courses should I take for an Ahpra notification?
Start with the Core Set above. Those nine cover both halves of what a Board reads: the standards you are judged against — the Ethics and Professionalism pair written for your own profession — and what it weighs once the facts are settled: insight, reflection, remediation, assurance the concern will not recur, and how the process itself works. They apply to every notification whatever the allegation.
Then add the courses that match the concern actually raised. Use the selector above: choose the type of concern in your letter and you will see the courses that address it directly.
Speak to your indemnity insurer, union or lawyer before you respond. They will tell you what evidence is appropriate for your particular matter. If you are taking several: one course is A$200, two courses are A$350, three are A$500, five are A$800 and ten are A$1,400. The saving is applied in the basket; the Bulk Buy Offer sets out the price for each number of courses.
Who handles my notification — Ahpra, a NSW Council, or the OHO?
It depends on where you practise: Ahpra and your National Board outside New South Wales and Queensland, the Council for your profession with the HCCC in New South Wales, and the Office of the Health Ombudsman in Queensland. Check the letterhead on your letter, and see who handles your Ahpra notification above for the full picture.
What is immediate action, and what should I do?
Immediate action is your National Board restricting or suspending your registration while a matter is still being investigated, where it believes that is necessary to protect the public. It is protective rather than punitive and is not a finding against you.
It follows a show cause process giving you a short window to respond. Contact your indemnity insurer, union or lawyer the same day. What you produce in that first fortnight matters more than anything you produce later.
Do I get a certificate, and will it count towards my CPD?
Yes. Healthcare Ethics Courses issues a CPD certificate for every course, recording 2 CPD hours, the course title and the date of completion. That is what makes it usable as evidence in a response, a remediation plan or a portfolio.
Each course is 2 CPD hours you can record towards your Board’s CPD standard.
How long do I have access to a course?
Access runs for twelve months from the date of purchase. You start immediately, work at your own pace, and there is no schedule to keep to within that period.
Finishing a course does not end your access. Once you have completed it and downloaded your certificate you can return to the material at any time for the rest of the twelve months, at no further cost.
Can I get a certificate with a later date?
No. The certificate records the date you completed the course, and that date does not change. Revisiting the material inside your twelve months does not produce a newly dated one.
If you need a certificate carrying a later date — because a Board, an employer or a tribunal has asked for recent evidence — you buy the course again. Within twelve months of your original purchase a repeat is half price; after twelve months it is the full A$200.
Will completing courses resolve my notification?
No. No course, from us or from anyone else, determines the outcome of a notification, an investigation or a tribunal matter, and any provider suggesting otherwise is worth treating with caution.
What a course can do is help you build the insight and reflection your response needs, and give you a dated, verifiable certificate to evidence it. How much weight that carries depends on the circumstances of the individual case.
How do I evidence insight and remediation to my National Board?
Four things, and the order matters. Whether you understand what went wrong. Whether you accept responsibility for your part in it. Whether you recognise the effect it had — on the patient, on colleagues, and on public confidence in the profession. And whether you can show meaningful change as a result.
A response can supply the first and the last and leave out the middle two. That gap can lead to a finding that insight is lacking. The Insight, Reflection and Remediation modules address each in turn.
Can I take a course if my registration is suspended or has conditions?
Yes. There is no registration check and no requirement to hold current registration. The courses are open to practitioners who are suspended, who have conditions on their registration, or who are working towards re-registration, as well as to those with a live notification.
If conditions require you to complete specific education, check the wording with your indemnity insurer, union or lawyer before choosing, so that what you complete matches what was ordered.
There are ten pages — which one is mine?
The one written for the Board you are registered with, because that is the Board whose code your conduct is measured against. All ten carry the same 25 courses. What differs is the wording, the FAQs, and the regulatory detail — which document applies, when it took effect, and which of your Board’s guidelines sit beneath it.
That distinction is not cosmetic. Twelve professions share a single Code of conduct, in effect since 29 June 2022. Three do not: the Medical Board applies Good medical practice, the Nursing and Midwifery Board applies separate codes for nurses and for midwives, and the Psychology Board has applied its own code since 1 December 2025. A response that quotes the wrong document invites the reply that you have not understood what you are answering.
If your profession has no page of its own — paramedicine, occupational therapy, podiatry, medical radiation practice, Chinese medicine, or Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health practice — use the page for all healthcare professionals, which is written to the shared code.
Is what I do confidential?
Yes. Courses are taken privately online at your own pace. We do not share participant details with Ahpra, any National Board, any NSW Council, the HCCC, the OHO, an employer, a union or an indemnity provider unless you choose to do so yourself.
You can complete a course before deciding whether to include it in a submission at all.
The concern is about professional boundaries — what applies?
Your own Board’s code. Where a Board has no separate boundaries guideline, that is the whole answer: the expectations sit inside the code itself and there is no separate document to find. The Medical Board is the exception — it publishes Sexual boundaries in the doctor-patient relationship, in effect since 12 December 2018. Citing another Board’s guideline is worse than citing nothing.
What every code has in common is where it puts the responsibility. Maintaining the boundary is the practitioner’s job, not the patient’s, and the imbalance of power is treated as a permanent feature of the relationship rather than something that ends at the door. Sexual misconduct in connection with practice is separately notifiable conduct under the National Law, which is why an allegation in this category can reach a Board from a colleague or an employer rather than from the patient.
Contact your indemnity insurer, union or lawyer before responding to an allegation in this category, and before contacting the patient or anyone connected with them.
I qualified overseas — are these relevant?
Yes, and they can be particularly relevant. A practitioner who trained overseas may be navigating an unfamiliar regulatory system at the same time as responding to a concern, and the vocabulary differs from what they learnt — notification rather than complaint, immediate action rather than interim order, cancellation rather than erasure.
The courses are written to Australian standards and explain the process in Australian terms.
