Before you begin

Before you begin, please consider the following documents and ensure you have this information ready.

Your Application Essential Documents

1. Proof of identification includes a driver's licence, passport, or birth certificate. Ensure that the document is valid and not expired.
2. Copies of official translations are required for documents that are not in English. The translator must be licensed, and the translation must be stamped as authorised and qualified. Verify the accuracy of the translations.
3. If applying for our ACDAP qualification, provide evidence that you meet our minimum entry requirements. Please review the specific entry requirements on our website.
4. For applicants under 16, upload a signed parental consent form. Ensure the form is completed accurately and signed by a parent or legal guardian.
5. If you have a criminal record, caution, or disciplinary history with another professional or regulatory body, please highlight this in the Admission form. Provide additional details or context regarding the incident.

Methods of Payment

You can pay using Mastercard, Visa, Paypal, or Alipay.com. Check that your preferred payment method is accessible and functional.

Important Points

• The application process takes around 10 minutes. Set aside sufficient time to complete the application without rushing.
• You can apply for exemptions during the process, but you must provide evidence of eligibility. Refer to our exemptions guide for detailed instructions.
• If you register, you will be invoiced the annual subscription fee to sit exams throughout the year. After that, the yearly subscription fee is due on or before 1 January each year to remain an active member. Invoices are sent in November; payment is required even if you plan to skip exams that year. 
• If your employer or education provider provided a registration code, you must enter it in the registration code on your application. Leave it blank if you still need to receive a code. Confirm the code's accuracy and validity with your provider if necessary.
