IMPORTANT
For new entrants to the QMPS Register commencing 1 July 2025
The Professional Standards Board (PSB) has established a mandatory requirement that all new entrants to the ACPSEM Register of Qualified Medical Physics Specialists (QMPS) — whether through successful completion of TEAP certification or via the experienced practitioner or bespoke pathways — must complete Clinical Governance Module 1 within 12 months of their registration. Provided this module is successfully completed within the allotted timeframe there is no cost involved.
Should new entrants not complete module 1 within the stipulated timeframe, the requirement to successfully complete the module will remain, but the registrant will have the remainder of the current CPD period in which to complete the module. In this case the registrant will be required to pay the $330 ACPSEM Member fee for the module. Non-compliance at the conclusion of the CPD period will result in removal of participants from the ACPSEM Register
