The College Medal of Honour

The College Medal of Honour award was established in 1987, and is the RANZCP's highest and most prestigious award. It is presented for distinguished and meritorious service to the College, to a RANZCP Fellow who has given a minimum of ten years’ active service in organisational and/or administrative areas of the RANZCP.

The College Medal of Honour is given by nomination only. To ensure preservation of its prestigious status an upper limit of fifteen living holders or one per cent of the membership (whichever is the higher) is set.
