Student Registration

Under the National Law, all students enrolled in an approved program of study, or who are undertaking clinical training in a health profession, must be registered as a student with their respective National Board.

Students must be registered before they start study or clinical training in medical radiation practice and will remain registered for the duration of study, or until they are no longer enrolled.

Students do not need to apply for registration. Under the National Law, the education provider is responsible for ensuring that all students enrolled in an approved program of study or who are undertaking a period of clinical training are registered with Ahpra.

There are no fees for student registration.

Ahpra manages student registration matters on behalf of the Boards and works directly with education providers to obtain details of all students in approved programs of study who need to be registered.

As clinical training placements are organised on an ad hoc basis and cover a wide variety of education providers, Ahpra cannot contact education providers who take on students for clinical training placements in medical radiation practice to request their student information. Clinical training education providers must initiate contact with Ahpra when they accept a student for a clinical placement to ensure that their student is added to the Student Register prior to the clinical training commencing.

To register students, education providers must complete the Student Data Template (34.0 KB,XLS) and submit their completed template via email.
