FPS CPD subsidy now available
The General Practice Mental Health Standards Collaboration (GPMHSC) is offering a limited number of $200 subsidies to support GPs in completing Focused Psychological Strategies (FPS) Continuing Professional Development (CPD) and maintaining their FPS registration.
To remain registered, GPs must complete 6 hours of FPS CPD each triennium. This training must focus on FPS interventions approved under the Better Access initiative, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Interpersonal Therapy, and/or the mental health conditions covered by the program, including depression and anxiety.
Eligible GPs will receive the $200 subsidy upon completion of an accredited FPS CPD activity.
Application forms are available on the GPMHSC website.
