Murdoch is currently seeking accreditation for this course with the Australasian Veterinary Boards Council (AVBC), the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) in the UK, and American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) Council on Education.

Once accreditation is achieved graduates of this course will be eligible for registration to practise veterinary medicine, without further examination, in Australia and a number of other countries - including Great Britain, New Zealand, Malaysia, South Africa, Singapore and Hong Kong. The DVM degree is recognised by the American Veterinary Medical Association which, after passing the appropriate National or State licensing examinations, makes Murdoch University graduates eligible to practise in the USA and Canada, as well.
