  • does not renew automatically 

  • cannot be renewed once it expires 

At the end of the 12 month period, individuals wishing to remain on the FEDIP register must: 

  • join one of the FEDIP recognised Professional Bodies, and 

  • apply for the FEDIP level appropriate to their role and experience 

 

5. Eligibility and accuracy of information 

You agree to provide accurate, complete and up to date information during registration. 

FEDIP reserves the right to suspend or terminate access where information provided is materially inaccurate or misleading. 

 

6. Code of Conduct and professional standards 

All Affiliate Practitioners must comply with the FEDIP Code of Conduct at all times. 

FEDIP may suspend or terminate registration, without refund, where it reasonably determines that there has been a material or repeated breach of the FEDIP Code of Conduct or misuse of FEDIP services, particularly where such conduct may damage trust in FEDIP or the integrity of the professional register. 

 

7. CPD requirement 

Affiliate Practitioners are expected to complete a minimum of 10 hours of CPD during the 12 month registration period. 

FEDIP may request confirmation of CPD activity as part of progression to a FEDIP level or for audit purposes. 

 

8. Payment and pricing 

  • All prices are displayed in pounds sterling 

  • Payment is due in full at the point of purchase 

  • Affiliate Practitioner registration is a one off payment 

FEDIP reserves the right to change pricing for future registrations, but this will not affect existing paid registrations. 

 

9. Cancellation and refunds 

Under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, you normally have a 14 day right to cancel digital services. 

By completing your purchase, you expressly request immediate access to digital content and services. 

 
Access is granted automatically upon payment. You acknowledge that, once access has been granted, your statutory 14-day right to cancel no longer applies 

If you have not accessed your digital content, you may cancel within 14 days of purchase by contacting info@fedip.org. 

No refunds will be provided once digital access has been granted, except where required by law. 

 

10. Access and availability 

FEDIP will take reasonable steps to ensure availability of the FEDIP Hub and associated services. However, access may occasionally be interrupted for maintenance, updates or reasons beyond our control. 

Temporary interruptions do not constitute grounds for refund or extension of the registration period.

All materials provided through FEDIP services remain the intellectual property of FEDIP or its licensors. 

You may not copy, distribute, share or reuse content except for your personal professional development.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, FEDIP is not liable for:
