Health Workforce Scholarship Program

Grant Description

The Health Workforce Scholarship Program (HWSP) provides financial support of up to $10,000 per year (maximum $20,000 over two years for scholarships) to rural and remote primary health professionals in Western Australia to upskill and expand their scope of practice. The program aims to improve access to essential health services in rural and remote communities, particularly in areas of identified workforce need, by supporting postgraduate study and professional development aligned with priority health needs such as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health, chronic disease, mental health and sexual health.
