Build a practical action plan for your organisation’s registration renewal and audit
Is your organisation’s registration renewal due between December 2026 and March 2027?
Express your interest in this practical online workshop designed for aged care providers registered in Category 4 and/or Category 5, with or without registration in Categories 1–3.
The workshop will guide you through the registration renewal process, audit readiness requirements and the steps needed to build a clear Registration Renewal Roadmap for your organisation.
Eligibility criteria

be registered in Category 4 and/or Category 5, with or without registration in Categories 1–3 (registered only in Categories 1–3? View the relevant workshop)
nominate staff who can attend the full workshop and lead the registration renewal process for their organisation.
What you’ll cover
The workshop will step you through:
the renewal application process, timelines, fees and the REN-001 base form
what commitment, capability and capacity should look like in a response, using the relevant category forms from REN-005 to REN-009
audit readiness requirements for Category 4 and 5 providers
how to build a practical registration renewal and audit readiness action plan for your organisation.
Why it matters
Aged care providers must renew their registration at least every 3 years. For many providers, this will be a new process.
The audit process has also changed. Providers must prepare pre-audit submissions and take a different approach to the on-site audit.
This workshop will help you understand what’s required, identify the work your organisation needs to complete and develop an action plan you can start using straight away.

Participating organisations must be registered in Category 4 and/or 5, with or without registration in Categories 1–3.
The nominated participants should be able to attend the full workshop and lead the registration renewal process within their organisation.
