New South Wales was the jurisdiction tasked to lead national implementation of key recommendations, with an immediate focus on developing a two-year Capability and Performance Framework, Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) and specifications for an e-portfolio, on behalf of the Australian Health Ministers’ Advisory Council (AHMAC).
