You need to be registered to practise as an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health practitioner.

- Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island health practitioner
- Aboriginal health practitioner
- Torres Strait Islander health practitioner.
There are three different types of registration offered to practitioners:
- general
- non-practising
- student.
