The Council does not set a standard fee for carrying out an accreditation review of a New Zealand education provider, training hospital, or examination provider, but will instead issue an itemised invoice for reimbursement of costs associated with the accreditation review. All such invoices are calculated on a cost-recovery basis only.
* An initial APC or RTW APC will be issued up until 31 March. Please note, this APC fee is only available for those applying for an initial APC, or for those returning to practice after a period of time away from practice.
* The fee for a ‘first APC’ is payable by those applicants who have completed an accredited programme of education.
* The Disciplinary Levy is for 12 months
