What if my application is not straightforward?

It's probably wise to email the office before applying if you feel your application is not straightforward. In exceptional circumstances the Professional Affairs Board (PAB) may set up an Assessment Panel to interview you. The Panel will provide you with prior information on the structure and topics of the interview. The Panel would then either recommend your election to Registered Membership, or in the case of failure, list specific requirements that you should fulfil before re-application. The Assessment Panel, nominated by PAB, will comprise at least two Registered Members or Fellows of the Institute, all elected members of PAB.
