How clinical content
is created here.

Citation standard

Every clinical claim in a PracticaCPD module is referenced to one of: a current RACGP, ACRRM, or NMBA guideline; Therapeutic Guidelines; a peer-reviewed source; current PBS criteria; or an equivalent authoritative source. References are visible on the module page — readers shouldn't have to take any claim on trust.

Review cadence

Every module carries an explicit last_reviewed date and a review_due date. The catalogue surfaces any module within three months of its review_due. Modules past their review date are marked accordingly and prioritised for refresh.

Default review cadence is annual. Modules covering rapidly evolving therapeutic areas (e.g. GLP-1 / SGLT2i guidance, COVID-19 sequelae) are reviewed more frequently.

Author and reviewer process

Modules are drafted by an Australian RACGP-Fellow general practitioner with current clinical practice in the area. Each module is reviewed by at least one additional clinician — another GP, a specialist relevant to the module's domain, or both. Reviewers check for clinical accuracy, currency of guidelines, and applicability to Australian primary-care practice.

We deliberately don't publish individual author and reviewer names. Clinical credibility flows from the editorial process — referenced claims, current guidelines, peer review — not from named reputations.

Cultural safety

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health considerations sit inside the clinical cases that need them, not in a bolted-on paragraph at the end. Health inequity, cultural safety, and access considerations are integrated where the clinical scenario warrants them rather than treated as a separate topic.

Conflict of interest

Module authors and reviewers must disclose any financial relationship with pharmaceutical or medical-device companies relevant to the module's content. Disclosures are reviewed before publication; material conflicts lead to either author/reviewer substitution or explicit on-page disclosure.

PracticaCPD itself takes no money from pharmaceutical or medical-device companies. The platform is funded entirely by subscription revenue from practitioners (Free and Pro tiers) and prospective practice-team revenue.

Corrections and updates

We update modules when:

• A relevant Australian guideline changes (e.g. RACGP, Therapeutic Guidelines, NPS MedicineWise)
• A reader reports a factual error
• Periodic review identifies content drift from current practice

When a module is updated, the version number increments, the last_reviewed date refreshes, and the change is noted on the module page. Reader-reported corrections receive a response within five business days at support@practicacpd.com.au.

Accreditation

PracticaCPD is not currently an accredited CPD provider with the RACGP, ACRRM, NMBA, or any other AHPRA Board. Every Statement of Completion is for self-recording with your CPD home. We are pursuing accreditation as the platform matures.

Liability and clinical advice

PracticaCPD content is educational material to inform clinical reasoning. It is not a substitute for clinical judgement, the specifics of any individual patient presentation, or current local guidelines at the time of care. Practitioners remain responsible for their own clinical decisions. See our terms of service for the full statement.
