Cultural Awareness:
An Introductory Training

Friday 21 August 2026 | 1:00pm – 5:00pm
This course introduces Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural awareness within a chiropractic context, aiming to enhance understanding of history, culture, and how values and assumptions influence clinical interactions. It offers practical ways for chiropractors and their teams to foster culturally safe practices. Cultural safety is vital for improving access to care and closing the health gap for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. As outlined in the Ahpra Code of Conduct, health practitioners are expected to support culturally safe care. This CPD-eligible course helps meet that obligation.
