The member directory

Who holds a HICS designation, and what they hold.

The directory publishes every member's current standing: their designation, their entry qualification, their recorded fields of practice, any advanced practice, their supervision status and whether they are in good standing. A client, an employer or a referring professional can confirm here what a named person holds. If a person is not listed as current, they are not a current member.

There are no HICS members yet.

HICS has not admitted its first members, so nobody is listed. Once a member has been approved, they will show on this page from the day of their approval. Until then, nobody can truthfully claim to be a HICS member. The two listings below are illustrative examples of how a member will appear. They are not real members.

A designation ceases to be usable the moment membership lapses, is suspended, is downgraded or is revoked, not at the end of a notice period. The directory is the authoritative record: if a person is not listed as current, they are not a current member.
