For applicant having graduating from a recognised Clinical Physiology Degree Course...
From Jan 2007 a new form was made available for graduates of the BSc Hons courses in Clinical Physiology and Audiology.
After consultation with the Health Professions Council, and in recognition that these are the recognised entry qualifications; the forms and evidence needed has been modified appropriately.  
Only students outputting from a BSc (Hons) Clinical Physiology or Audiology degree from an accredited HEI as shown on the Accredited Provider List will be eligible to use this form for application to the register.
Please note that when using this shortened version of the form that a reference is required  This must be a character reference from your workplace, wherever possible but if this is not available, from your work based assessor/clinical tutor/internal verifier.  The character reference should provide evidence the applicant's fitness to practice.
