The registration process

The portfolio-based registration process developed by ARH gives assessors the opportunity to recognise and acknowledge an applicant’s prior experience in practice. This is of particular benefit to those homeopaths who have been in practice for some time, but have not previously registered with any of the professional organisations.

We would like registering with the ARH to be a positive and rewarding experience for all new applicants. We believe that by developing a portfolio-based registration procedure, we can assess applicants as individuals. ARH endeavours to support applicants in areas they may find challenging, and to work with them to build on their strengths.
