Yes, seeking a job in a regional or remote area can significantly increase your chances of obtaining specialist accreditation. Many regional and remote areas in Australia are designated as Areas of Need, which often provide more opportunities for supervised practice and a streamlined pathway to accreditation. These positions are highly valued and may offer additional incentives, such as faster processing times, greater support, and access to specific programs aimed at addressing workforce shortages in underserved locations.
The Department of Health provides a Health Workforce Locator tool to identify Areas of Need. We can guide you in using this tool and help you choose the most suitable region for your specialty and career goals.
