**IMPORTANT INFORMATION: COVID-19**

The CCEA is monitoring the rapidly evolving situation regarding the global pandemic of Coronavirus (COVID-19). The pandemic poses a significant public health risk, and the CCEA is taking the advice and guidance of the Australian Government, and the World Health Organisation.

As an accreditation authority, and skills assessment authority, be assured the CCEA takes its role and responsibilities seriously. We will continue to work with all of our stakeholders to ensure business continuity and timely service provision during this difficult time. To this end, we have collaboratively developed advice for our accredited chiropractic programs as guidance. With regard to competency based assessment, we have made the decision to cancel the scheduled June session. At this stage, the next available session is November 2020. We will keep candidates informed as and when things change. 

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions, and we will endeavour to resolve your queries as best we can given the nature of this situation.
