A strong heritage. A forward-looking College.
Founded in 1978 as the Australasian College of Podiatric Surgeons, the organisation has contributed to the development of specialist podiatric surgical education and professional practice in Australia.
In October 2026, the name changed to the Australasian College of Podiatric Surgery. The new name focuses on the discipline and reflects a broader, more inclusive direction while preserving the College’s heritage.
Guided by experience and professional responsibility
The College is governed by its Council, with boards and committees overseeing specialist education, examinations, clinical audit, research, professional standards and organisational activities.
This page will introduce current Council members and provide a clear overview of the College’s governance structure.
Serving communities in Australia and abroad
ACPS members have contributed to community and humanitarian healthcare initiatives, including historical projects in Vietnam, Bangladesh and Myanmar.
The College also supports culturally appropriate care and improved access to foot and ankle services for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Current activities will be featured as they are confirmed.
