Candidates

From practitioner to professional

As a structured, peer reviewed credential that builds on what professionals already do in the workplace, the FSP transforms talented practitioners into credentialed professionals.

The FSP gives professionals a competitive edge, clearly signaling their increased value to clients and employers by:

  • Demonstrating high standards of professional behaviour, skills and technical knowledge
  • Critically reflecting on their own practice to become better professionals
  • Learning from industry experts who provide guidance throughout the credentialing process
  • Staying at the forefront of industry trends and knowledge through ongoing professional development.

“Right length, right detail and achievable because it is what we do”
