The Council on Chiropractic Education Australasia Inc
 The CCEA was formed in 2002 to encompass the
activities of two separate organisations – the Australasian
Council on Chiropractic Education and the Joint Education Committee of
Participating Registration Boards.
The CCEA plays a vital role. This independent and nationally recognised
body is responsible for ensuring competency and high education standards
in chiropractic for the Australasian community.
It achieves this by inspecting, accrediting and continually monitoring
entry level chiropractic programmes in Australasia.
The CCEA also coordinates a skills recognition process and assessment
for chiropractors trained outside of Australia and New Zealand for
migration and work visa eligibility. Successful completion of this
process allows eligibility to apply to the relevant independent
regulatory authority for registration in Australia.
The Australasian College of Chiropractors
In 2006 the ACC was established by the CAA National Board to
create a professional environment that nurtures, encourages and
recognises the individual contributions to the knowledge, understanding
and evidence base of chiropractic.
The ACC’s vision is focused on the ongoing development of the base
of evidence and professional environment, as well as the advancement of
knowledge and understanding for chiropractors and the community to
enhance patient care. It does not solely function for CAA members, but
endeavours to raise the standards of care offered by all
chiropractors.
For this reason, every chiropractor undertaking continuing professional
development approved by the CAA – regardless of whether or not
they are a CAA member – is awarded Associate membership of the
ACC.
The membership structure of the ACC was also created to encourage
Associate members to aspire to the additional categories of Membership
or Fellowship within the categories of Professional Activity, Research,
Teaching and Clinical Practice.
