Health Workforce Scholarship Program

The Health Workforce Scholarship program (HWSP) provides scholarships and bursaries up to $10,000 to help qualified health professionals in remote and rural Australia retain and enhance their skills, capacity, and scope of practice. 

This is the perfect opportunity for eligible health professionals to secure funding for that course that commences in early 2023!

The HWSP is available to qualified medical, nursing, midwifery, allied health, dental and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health professionals providing primary health care in rural and remote Queensland in private practice, a non-government or not-for-profit organisation within a MMM 3-7 location, or an Aboriginal Medical Service (AMS), Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations (ACCHO) in a MMM 1-7 location. 

Applications are open 7 November – 20 November 2022 (for courses starting on or before 21 April 2023). Outcome will be issued by 16/12/2022, just in time to make the New Year look very bright!

I was hoping you would be able to share the information that is in the attached Media Kit and digital assets via your socials and/or newsletters to your medical, nursing, midwifery, dental, and allied health members.

Updated guidelines have been uploaded to our website which applications will need to read before submitting their application.
