How to join STEP

 

There are four levels of STEP membership: Full Member (TEP) – our highest level of membership for experienced practitioners; Associate; Affiliate; and Student – entry-level membership for those just starting out.

​

Depending on your experience and qualifications/credentials you can join STEP as a Student, Affiliate or Full Member (TEP). Practitioners who join at Student or Affiliate level can work their way up to TEP status via our Exam or Essay Route, or through acquiring the necessary level of experience. You may also be eligible to apply directly for Full STEP Membership and TEP status through our Accredited Education Partner Route if you have successfully completed any of the accredited routes, in addition to having two years relevant work experience.

​

In joining STEP, you are demonstrating your commitment to high professional standards. All members must adhere to STEP’s Codes of Professional Conduct, which set out the ethical and professional standards a member should uphold.

All applicants admitted must meet our fit and proper criteria, and applications must be accompanied by appropriate references.

Select your amount of professional experience to find out how you can start your membership journey.​
