Qualifications appeals and complaints

Appeals against a decision of the society's Qualifications Leadership Teams

An appeal can only be lodged on one of the following three grounds:

  1. That the Regulations governing the qualification were improperly applied in an individual case
  2. That due process in the examination or assessment of a candidate was not followed
  3. That further information that may have a bearing on the result of the examination or assessment has become available subsequent to a decision being made
