'A portfolio is a great way to demonstrate impact as you progress in your career'

Jacinta Johnson FANZCAP (Research, Edu.) says it’s fantastic that ANZCAP is open and accessible to everyone, including technicians and pharmacists in Australia and New Zealand. ‘I was really excited to get my ANZCAP certificate and I’m excited to see everybody else’s once they jump into the program.’

ANZCAP is a landmark program recognising career progression and specialty skills, enabling pharmacists and technicians from all practice settings to be recognised for their experience and expertise. 

SHPA’s recognition program enables the achievements of practitioners to be clearly and concisely understood by their employers and peers, by healthcare colleagues and, most importantly, by the patients in their care.

ANZCAP comprises an initial Foundation Program that acknowledges prior professional experience and an Independent Program for anyone, anywhere to map their own path. These are now open to all Australian pharmacists (Ahpra General Registration).

Training Programs to fast-track recognition progress over two years, recognition for Pharmacy Technicians and Custom Portfolios for personal professional use will be available in 2024.
