CRFP - Registration - Revalidating

Revalidating

Registration is about fitness to practise and current competence, so every four years we revalidate your registration to check you are still up to date.

The revalidation process is a simplified, but no less rigorous, form of the procedure for applying. It is based on an assessment of recent casework, but also takes into account what you have been doing since you were first registered.

If your revalidation is successful, we will grant you registration for a further four years. If not, your current registration period will end on the date on your certificate. Please consult the notes on how to apply for revalidation before submitting your application form.

The revalidation process is more urgent than your first application because we cannot extend your current registration period. If the process is not complete by the date this period expires, we must remove your name from the register.

Stage A - We start the revalidation process on the third anniversary of your registration period to give you plenty of time. More…

Stage B - When we receive your completed revalidation form, we set a timetable of three months for the assessment to be completed. More…

Stage C - We finalise our decision based mainly on the recommendation of the assessors. More...
