To retain their names on the register, registrants are required to pay an annual retention fee. Applications from UK-trained arts therapists from approved arts therapies training schools or departments are processed by the Registration Department.
Enquirers are welcome to contact it directly.
Registration with the Board provides the arts therapist with statutory recognition which is accepted throughout the United Kingdom. State registered arts therapists are required to abide by the Statement of Conduct. They are entitled to vote in elections for representatives on the Board and receive an annual report each year on the Board's activities. A complete, coherent and accurate application can take several weeks to process. However, if information or documentation is missing, processing can take months.
