## Description

The Australasian College of Paramedicine (ACP) is the leading professional body for paramedics and those in the paramedicine field in Australia and New Zealand. With over 10,000 members, including paramedics, academics, researchers, doctors, nurses, and first responders, the College provides knowledge, events, a community, and more to support and represent its members. The College offers a wide range of services to its members, including conferences, professional development workshops, online learning, and research opportunities. They also provide a peer-reviewed journal and grants for education and research activities. Additionally, the College assists members in meeting registration standards set by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency and offers career and wellbeing services. As a respected voice in healthcare, the College plays a vital role in shaping and implementing changes in health service provision, legislation, and clinical practice to improve the quality of patient care. Their logo, depicting the Star of Life, the Rod of Asclepius, and the Southern Cross Constellation, symbolizes the emergency medicine and care provided by paramedics under the southern sky. Established in 1973, the ACP has a rich history, evolving from the Institute of Ambulance Officers to the Australian College of Ambulance Professionals before becoming the Australasian College of Paramedicine. They are dedicated to representing and supporting paramedics across Australia and New Zealand, recognizing and respecting the significance of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and Māori as the traditional custodians and partners.
