Professional Registration
Welcome to the Professional Registration page! Here you will find information and resources to assist you with your application for professional registration.
An important part of AphA’s vision is to have professionally registered analysts. We offer all our members the opportunity to become professionally registered with the Federation for Informatics Professionals (FEDIP). This is the only public register for all informatics professionals in the UK, dedicated to delivering better health and care through the advanced use of technology.
Professional registration is an opportunity demonstrate your knowledge, skills and competencies through a peer review process. This process validates your skills and competencies as an analyst, evidencing your ability as a healthcare analyst through an externally validated process. This is also a great way for you to show your commitment to your own career and professional development
Levels of Registration
There are five levels of professional registation available.
How do I apply?
Application for professional registration involved collating evidence and undertaking reflective practice to demonstrate how you meet the standards for your chosen level of application. This is accompanied by an application form.
Applications can be submitted four time a year as part of a quarterly registration cycle. Application months are January, April, July and October. Applications from Associate Practitioners are welcome at any time of the year.
The registration process takes a maximum of three months from submission of your application.
If your application is successful, an annual fee of £25 is payable to FEDIP via AphA.

The Professional Development Committee (PDC)
The AphA professional registration process is governed through the AphA Professional Development Committee. This committee oversees applications for professional registration, ensuring there are robust assessment processes in place to review applicants and their portfolios. The committee makes recommendations in terms of which applicants should be admitted to the professional register. The committee is also responsible for ensuring our professional standards are maintained and are relevant to the practising analyst.
The Professional Development Committee is chaired by Emma Wright, AphA Executive Director of Professional Development and includes representation from assessors and other AphA directors.
