How does an organisation apply for APEC status?
To apply for APEC status, an organisation must pay a joining fee of $1760(inc gst) and nominate an individual or individuals to attend a full-day RCNA APEC workshop during which the endorsement process is outlined in detail. Workshops are conducted throughout the year at various major cities around Australia. Following attendance at the full-day workshop, the organisation will then become an authorised provider of endorsed courses on behalf of RCNA for a period of two years. From the date of the workshop attendance, the organisational representative will become an endorser of educational activities for their organisation for a period of two years provided that representative continues to be employed by their organisation as their endorser of education activities or events. In order to maintain its APEC membership after two years, the organisation is required to pay a renewal fee of $1760 (inc gst).
