General Information
There is an annual cost for membership of MIP running from 1st September to 31st August and thereafter on an annual basis. You need to make sure that your MIP membership is completed by 1st September each year.
The membership of the Manchester Institute for Psychotherapy numbers 70-80 in totality. This includes 3 distinct categories of membership:
* Trainee membership 1st September-31st August: this includes all the members who are enrolled on our 4 years of training at MIP.
* Graduate membership – 1st September-31st August: this includes all graduates of MIP and those who are on the accreditation pathway to full clinical membership of the UKCP.
* Fully Qualified MIP UKCP Psychotherapists – 1st September-31st August: This category includes people who started their training with MIP and have completed the pathway to full accreditation and status as a UKCP Psychotherapist. This population will need to stay members of MIP and fill in annual reports of further trainings for at least 5 years in order to have further reaccreditation with the UKCP.
