Health Workforce Scholarship Program (HWSP)

The Health Workforce Scholarship Program (HWSP) provides scholarships and bursaries to help health professionals in remote and rural Australia retain and enhance their skills, capacity and scope of practice.

Scholarships or bursaries are available for medical, nursing/midwifery, dental, allied health and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health workers providing primary health care services in rural and remote Western Australia in private practice, an Aboriginal Medical Service (AMS), Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations (ACCHO) or a non-government or not-for-profit organisation. You are not eligible if you are employed solely by the State Government.

To apply for HWSP funding, you must meet the eligibility requirements. The full eligibility requirements and exclusions are detailed on the website.
