If you are a former member who has been resigned for more than five years, you must reapply as a new member. You will need to submit new documents to support your application.
Once you have completed the application process, paid the applicable application fee, and provided the basic document requirements (legal ID and education), you will be sent to the Board to be approved as an Associate.
After all required documentation is received, together with references, your complete file will be sent to the Admissions Committee for a file review. This takes about 4 months, and after this has been completed, any outstanding requirements will be identified.
You will also be informed of any applicable certification or CPD timelines that must be followed.
If you passed the Professional Practice Exam (PPE) previously, you do not need to write it again. If you were originally certified prior to 1995, you will not have written the PPE which is a requirement for re-entry. In its place we ask that you review the PPE Study Guide and respond to the Registrar by email within six months that you have done so.
