Expressions of interest - Medical Sciences Council Exam Q&A writers

29 Jul, 2026

The Council is seeking Expressions of Interest (EOI) from registered medical laboratory science (MLS) and anaesthetic technician (AT) health practitioners interested in writing questions and answers (Q&A) for the medical laboratory scientist (MLS) and anaesthetic technician (AT) examinations. The examinations are based on the competence standards for each profession and are used to assess suitability for registration of overseas qualified applicants. 

We are looking for practitioners from a variety of practice settings to contribute to the Q&A library. Q&A writers are paid for each question that is accepted for use by the Council.

To qualify, practitioners should be registered, have a current practising certificate, and be in good standing with the Council. Familiarity with the competence standards and working with students and new graduates would be an advantage.

 To express your interest:

  • Provide a letter expressing your interest
  • A brief CV outlining relevant experience
