Types of Independent Learning Experiences
is an Autonomous Learning Experience?
Autonomous Learning Experiences allow ANZCAP members to independently document, self evaluate and self-reflect on a variety of significant professional experiences.
Compared to other categories of learning experiences, Autonomous Learning Experiences do not require collaboration with peers for feedback or for the professional experience to be peer reviewed.
Autonomous Learning Experiences can contribute towards recognition of professional practice in a variety of ways by inclusion in either recognition or custom portfolios.

Autonomous Learning Experience Workflow
All Autonomous Learning Experiences involve 3 steps for completion; Prepare, Engage & Reflect.
🧩 Prepare

Pharmacist identifies an appropriate professional experience that is significant to their practice and aligns it with the appropriate type of Autonomous Learning Experience.
The pharmacist must independently determine:
Pharmacist engages in the professional experience (skill or situation)
Pharmacist completes the ANZCAP LX digital tool, which guides the pharmacist to:
Self-evaluate key skills of the experience
Reflect on the experience by identifying strengths, areas for development & development goals
Upload evidence to support the Autonomous Learning Experience
