ANZCAP is a landmark recognition program for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians working across Australia and New Zealand, developed by the Society of Hospital Pharmacists of Australia (SHPA) in partnership with the New Zealand Hospital Pharmacy Association (NZHPA) and are mapped to relevant competency standards for Australia or New Zealand.

No. Your AHPRA or PCNZ registration is separate to ANZCAP recognitions. Recognitions are designed to show your level of expertise and specialties, recognition. ANZCAP recognition is designed to allow pharmacists practicing above the general level to collate evidence of expertise and specialisation in practice and to support and broaden your professional development and career options.

ANZCAP is founded on an advanced and customised portfolio-building IT platform enabling pharmacists and technicians to centrally and securely manage evidence of their career progression.

This platform represents a significant investment by SHPA and, as a for-purpose organisation, annual recognition payments will support this investment in the future of our profession.

ANZCAP is also supported by education pharmacist specialised staff who develop and implement the learning pathways, run the recognition system and audit applicantsrecognition programs and ensure the ongoing robustness and sustainability of the ANZCAP framework via regular audits and dispute resolution.
