Chiropractors are required to adhere to strict and extensive educational requirements and standards to become registered health professionals in Australia. Australian chiropractors are five year university trained, and are government registered and government regulated health professionals.
To become a registered chiropractor in Australia you must have studied an accredited 5-year chiropractic program conducted at a University within Australia, or have completed an accredited program overseas that satisfies the requirements set by the Australian Chiropractic Regulating authority.
Successful completion of the whole program of study is required for professional registration as a chiropractor. Members of the profession and the Association's chief executive attend course advisory committee meetings and regular discussions are held between the universities' academic staff and the CAA National Board.
A chiropractor’s education never ends.
After entering practice, all CAA chiropractors must complete continuing professional development courses and seminars to upgrade and improve their skills and to stay current on the latest scientific research.
