Fitness to practise

When we say that a registrant is ‘fit to practise’ we mean that they have the skills, knowledge and character to practise their profession safely and effectively.

However, fitness to practise is not just about professional performance. It also includes acts by a registrant which may affect public protection or confidence in the profession. This may include matters not directly related to professional practice.

• What is the purpose of the fitness to practise process?
• The types of cases we can consider
• What happens if a concern is raised about me?
• What to expect from us if a concern is raised about you
• What should I do?
• The investigations process
• What happens if the case is referred to a final hearing?
• Before the final hearing
• At the final hearing
• After the final hearing
• Interim Orders
