Division of Forensic Psychology

The Division of Forensic Psychology (DFP) promotes the professional interests of forensic psychologists.

We aim to develop psychology as a profession and as a body of knowledge and skills.

We support our members by providing training and advice, by holding regular events, and by keeping members up to date with the latest divisional news.

How to join

Membership of the division is open to members of the British Psychological Society.

If you are not already a member, you can join the DFP at the same time as applying for membership of the Society.

• Full divisional membership - For fully qualified psychologists who are eligible for Chartered Status.
   
• In-training divisional membership - For psychologists in-training who hold the Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC) and are working towards Chartered status and full divisional membership.
   
• General divisional membership - For members of the Society who are not currently eligible for the above grades.
