Essential information on moving from column B to column C of the SCoPEd framework
UKCP is committed to supporting clear, transparent and fair pathways for members to progress in their professional careers. If you are a UKCP-registered adult psychotherapeutic counsellor (column B in the SCoPEd framework) and are considering becoming an adult psychotherapist (column C in the SCoPEd framework), this page explains the current pathways and what to expect.
The Scope of Practice and Education (SCoPEd) framework is a collaboratively developed competence framework that maps the core training, practice and competency requirements for counsellors, psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors working with adults. It provides a clear, transparent structure that supports public understanding, professional mobility and high standards across the profession.
There are currently no open elections within UKCP.
Information about future elections, including timelines and eligibility, will be published on this page when available. Members will also be notified directly in line with our governance procedures.
