Our engagement activities

Engagement strategy

The National Scheme engagement strategy 2020-2025 outlines our goal of building trust and confidence of practitioners and the public. The strategy aims to build the trust and confidence of our key stakeholders in our work to protect public health and safety.

The strategy supports the vision, mission and strategic themes of our National Registration and Accreditation Scheme (NRAS) Strategy 2020-25. The strategy expands on the National Scheme strategic theme of ‘Trust and confidence’ and its purpose is to support Ahpra and the National Boards to deliver on the goals and objectives of the National Scheme strategy.

The engagement strategy:

• outlines the broad principles to guide our strategic engagement
• aims to ensure that our interactions with individuals and organisations are consistently respectful, person-centred and contribute towards our regulatory objectives, and
• provides an overview of ways we will engage with our stakeholders over the next five years.
