BPS Qualifications: Appeals & complaints

BPS Qualifications

We offer postgraduate qualifications in a range of psychological disciplines, all of which give you the opportunity to develop within your current role and gain the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to enhance your career.

Through supervised practice from a senior psychologist these qualifications will help you to recognise and enhance your skills in your chosen field of applied psychology, while having the flexibility to balance it with work and family commitments.

Upon completing one of our qualifications not only will you be eligible to become a chartered psychologist, a hallmark of quality for psychological practitioners, but you will also become eligible to apply for registration with the HCPC.

If you have any queries about our qualifications you can contact us at 0116 252 9505 or via [email protected]

Appeals against a decision of the society’s Qualifications Boards

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

That the Regulations governing the qualification were improperly applied in an individual case.
That due process in the examination or assessment of a candidate was not followed.
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.

Making a complaint

Candidate concerns and minor complaints should, in the first instance, go to the Qualifications Team, who will endeavour to resolve them swiftly and informally.

If you wish to raise a complaint beyond this level please consult our complaints policy for how to do so.
