Assessing fitness-to-practice of overseas-trained health practitioners by Australian registration & accreditation bodies
Assessment of fitness-to-practice of health professionals trained overseas and who wish to practice in
Australia is undertaken by a range of organisations. These organisations conduct assessments using a range of
methods. However there is very little published about how these organisations conduct their assessments. The
purpose of the current paper is to investigate the methods of assessment used by these organisations and the
issues associated with conducting these assessments
