Online applications MANDATORY for Tutors, Interns, CSPs and Pharmacists after CSP registrations for 2015
One of Council’s primary strategies is to adopt a Go Green approach in the way it conducts business undertakings. One way this is being achieved (and saving trees in the process!) is through automating everyday business processes. Online applications for tutor approval, internship, community service pharmacists, and pharmacists upon completion of CSP are mandatory from 2015.
Please note that from 1 December 2014 NO manual applications will be accepted for the following categories:
