Spent conference week talking to Practice Managers with letters after their name, and wondered if it is worth going for yourself?
Certified Practice Manager (CPM AAPM) recognises a strong, well-rounded grasp of the role. Fellowship (FAAPM) acknowledges sustained leadership and contribution to the profession. Neither is about collecting letters after your name. They are about having your expertise recognised, and giving the practices you work with confidence in the person steering the ship.

If you have been in the role a while and quietly wondered whether it is worth it, now is a good time to look into it.

Thinking about a formal qualification, but not sure how to fit study around a full-time role?

Through AAPM's partnership with UNE Partnerships, members can study nationally recognised qualifications by distance education, so study fits around the job rather than the other way around. Options range from Certificate III and IV qualifications in areas like business administration and medical practice assisting, through to the Diploma of Leadership in Healthcare Practice for those ready to formalise their leadership experience.

Each course counts toward CPD, and members receive a discount on course fees.
A rundown of what is available and who each one suits:

You went to the training, the webinar, or the conference. The notes are saved, the energy was good, and now the inbox is full again.

Most professional development quietly disappears within a fortnight if nothing changes at your desk. A simple two-week framework can help it stick:

1️⃣Week one: pick one idea from what you learned, not five, and write down exactly what it would look like in your practice.

2️⃣Week two: put it in place, even in a small way, and note what happened.

Two weeks is short enough to actually follow through, and long enough to see whether the idea holds up in real life. It is a simple way to make sure your CPD does more than earn points.

That is a wrap on the 2026 AAPM National Conference.

Thank you to every Practice Manager who joined us in Brisbane this year, to the speakers who gave their time, and to the sponsors and exhibitors who made the week possible.

If you missed this year's conference, keep an eye out for 2027 details. For now, we hope everyone got home safely, and thank you for being part of it.

A few days into the 2026 AAPM National Conference, and Brisbane has delivered exactly what we hoped for.

Full sessions, genuine conversations between Practice Managers comparing notes on the same challenges, and the exhibition floor is worth spending real time on. It is a reminder of how much there is to gain simply from being in the room with people who understand the job.

One more day to go. If you are following along from home, the full wrap is coming soon.

Day one in Brisbane.

The 2026 AAPM National Conference is officially under way at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre. Masterclasses are running this morning, and the registration desk is busy.

If you are here with us, come say hello. If you could not make it this year, keep an eye on this page over the next few days for a look at what you missed.

First time heading to the AAPM National Conference and not sure what to expect once you land? One week until the 2026 conference kicks off in Brisbane.

📅 Tuesday 13 to Friday 16 October 2026
📍 Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre, Grey Street, South Brisbane

Registration and masterclasses open the conference on Tuesday, and the main program runs Wednesday to Friday. Some of the best moments happen between sessions, not just during them. Exhibition breaks and the networking drinks are where a lot of the real value sits.

Pack comfortable shoes and leave room in the suitcase for what you will inevitably bring home.
