Call for applications: Chinese Medicine Reference Group

06 Sep 2021

Applications are sought from experienced and recently graduated registered Chinese Medicine practitioners and members of the community for appointment to the Chinese Medicine Reference Group (the Reference Group) of the Chinese Medicine Board of Australia (the Board).

The purpose of the Reference Group is to engage stakeholders in order to achieve a common understanding of the National Scheme and to assist the Board in progressing its core business.

The Reference Group will:

• receive regular information about the progress of the Board’s work when appropriate
• be advised of and asked for advice on any significant changes in the broader policy or legislative environment
• provide information on current or anticipated developments and issues
• provide advice on policy development or revisions
• report on the impact of existing policies, and
• consider any issues arising from any other developments.

Recent graduates

This position is not expected to be representative of all new graduates as it would require wide-reaching communication and consultation with the group. Rather, the Board is seeking the perspective of a recently graduated Chinese medicine practitioner to add value to the group discussions.

The National Scheme has a commitment to increasing Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Peoples’ leadership and voices. Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people are strongly encouraged to apply, as are people from rural or regional areas in Australia.
