Abstract
This paper highlights key research areas within paramedicine education in Australia. Firstly, it discusses the need for a comparative analysis of accreditation standards, focusing on the recent shift towards a pre-employment model and its impact on program content, particularly the balance between theoretical and practical components. Secondly, it addresses the importance of exploring the influence of ethics education on paramedic practice, investigating how a robust ethical foundation acquired during education translates into ethical practices in real-world scenarios. Additionally, it suggests conducting a comparative study of international models to understand different education approaches, emphasising the importance of identifying best practices to enhance paramedic education in Australia. Lastly, it emphasises the significance of assessing the impact of accreditation changes in 2018, specifically the shift in accreditation responsibilities from the Council of Ambulance Authorities to the Paramedicine Board of Australia, aiming to understand its implications on the quality and consistency of paramedicine education across various institutions. Overall, this paper highlight the critical research gaps and areas of investigation essential for advancing paramedicine education and improving the quality of paramedic training in Australia.
