The Federation for Informatics Professionals

The most common reason people give for not registering with FEDIP is that they haven't decided which professional body to join yet. You don't have to decide first. The Affiliate Practitioner route lets you get on the register now, and we can send you all the information about which professional body will work for you. Your name is on a public register. Your employer can verify it. The rest can follow. Get started today:

What is on the agenda at BMJ Future Health Europe (29 to 30 October, The Brewery, London)?

Professional registration is increasingly an expected requirement for informatics roles, and ultimately a mandatory one, particularly at senior levels. FEDIP registration gives practitioners: - Recognised professional status - Parity with other healthcare professions - Peer support - Networking opportunities - Access to development resources The FEDIP educational programme, now in development, is designed to support the same route: career progression through membership of affiliated professional bodies and FEDIP registration. Get ahead of the shift. Contact kim.bellis@fedip.org to find out more. #ProfessionalRegistration #FEDIP #HealthAndCare #HealthInformatics
