AMC:
- The Australian Medical Council (AMC) is an independent national standards body for medical education and training.
- From an IMG perspective, its importance lies in the fact that AMC verifies/ certifies your medical degree (via EPIC ECFMG) and conducts AMC 1 and AMC2 exams.
AHPRA:
- Manages the registration and renewal processes for health practitioners and students in Australia
- Manages investigations into the professional conduct, performance or health of registered health practitioner
- Works with the Health Complaints Commissions in each state and territory to make sure the appropriate organisation deals with community concerns about individual, registered health practitioners
