Our pioneering pain medicine training program is a two-year post-specialist qualification that leads to fellowship of the Faculty of Pain Medicine of the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists with the post nominals FFPMANZCA.

EPM Online provides a primer in the essentials of pain management. It covers the tools that can be used to Recognise, Assess and Treat pain.

The FPM Board oversees the activities of the faculty in accordance with the FPM by-laws and the ANZCA strategic plan.

The by-laws govern the conduct and management of the Faculty of Pain Medicine. 

The faculty is proud to announce the launch of the National Strategy for Health Practitioner Pain Management Education

We've collated a range of resources for pain patients and their families.

Reporting to the Training and Assessment Executive Committee, the Learning and Development Committee is responsible for the ongoing support and evaluation of the training program and other educational initiatives.

FPM committees support the board in achieving its objectives in the training, examination and continuing education of specialist pain medicine physicians and in setting the standards of clinical practice for pain medicine in Australia and New Zealand.
