We are currently reviewing how members can access Chartered Status. Thank you to all the members who contributed to the first phase of this consultation, the results of which are here. The second phase will commence soon.
We have therefore paused entry to the Chartered Practitioner Programme. We aim to launch a new pathway to Chartered Status later in 2023 based on member feedback.
