Accreditation Materials
The NADP Professional Standards Framework
The NADP Professional Standards Framework encompasses all aspects that make up the process by which Disability Practitioners (DPs) can demonstrate that they meet the required standards for NADP Individual Accreditation, as Accredited or Senior Accredited Member. This includes:
- the core dimensions and elements of the DPs role and practice
- a set of criteria against which DPs can be measured to ascertain they meet the required standards
- the means by which DPs can provide appropriate evidence to enable measurement against the criteria
- appropriate quality systems to enable fair and equitable reviewing and decision-making
- a variety of information and guidance to support those applying for accreditation
Registration Form
The registration form for both 2023 cohorts (January and May starts) is available on the main accreditation page. Please ensure you have looked through the criteria and prepared the employment information before you register.
If you are planning to work for accreditation in the next couple of years, please look through the materials and start drafting now. The assessment will not change and it will ensure that you can complete accreditation in the time.
