Program Level Requirements

In order to meet the MBA CPD registration standard, medical practitioners must engage in at least one activity relevant to each of the four program-level requirements (CAPE), every CPD cycle.

  • Cultural safety practice
  • Addressing health inequities
  • Professionalism
  • Ethical practice

These are part of, and not in addition to, your 50 hours of CDP to be completed every year.

All program-level requirements are aligned to the Good Medical Practice: a code of conduct for doctors in Australia. (the code). The code describes what is expected of doctors registered to practise medicine in Australia. It sets out the principles that characterise good medical practice and makes explicit the standards of ethical and professional conduct expected of doctors by their professional peers and the community.

Cultural safety and health equity should be embedded and considered in relation to all CPD activities, including goal setting. When documenting your activities, consider whether the activity supports your development of culturally safe practices and health equality.
