About us
The Royal Australian
and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (the RANZCP) is a not-for-profit
professional membership organisation. We are responsible for training,
educating and representing psychiatrists in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand.
The College
is accredited by the Australian Medical Council (AMC) and the Medical Council
of New Zealand (MCNZ) to deliver specialist medical education and training, and
professional development programs.
At our core
is a deep commitment to equity and belonging. We are guided by our
reconciliation commitments and the principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi, and we
work purposefully to improve mental health outcomes for Aboriginal, Torres
Strait Islander, and Māori communities because we believe quality care must
reach everyone.
Joining the
RANZCP means being part of something that matters: an organisation where your
work directly shapes how psychiatry is practiced, taught, and experienced
across two nations.
