They possess an in-depth understanding of the industry and implications of emerging technologies on the wider business environment.

What are the standards for Leading Practitioner?

The Standards

All applications across all grades are assessed against the FEDIP 'standard'. These are a common set of guidelines and criteria that all informaticians can be assessed against.

​

The standard was written in consultation with the awarding professional bodies, UKCHIP and leading informaticians across the UK.

​

To achieve Leading Practitioner status, practitioners must evidence that they exercise autonomy within broad parameters and have authority over all aspects of a significant area of work. They are involved in the formulation and application of both policy and strategy.

 

Leading Practitioners address complex, nonroutine organisational problems and have a full range of strategic leadership and management skills. They show an in-depth understanding of the industry and implications of emerging technologies on the wider business environment.
