Registration Procedure

The application for registration requires prospective members to complete the Quick Evaluation form (see below) and attach the required documents.

Recognition of prior learning (RPL) is an academic procedure of evaluation by which a candidate may gain academic credits towards an accredited qualification/outcomes based on informal and non-formal learning and work experience.

In this case the RPL would provide recommendations from a RPL panel to gain membership registration at the professional body.

Some candidates have sufficient RPL credits, but others may need to do additional work. Should the panel find the informal learning and work experience needed to be augmented by doing a short training course in counselling, this could complete the RPL process to gain enough credits to be eligible for ASCHP registration.

Quick Evaluation Form


Please take note that if you exceed the 90 days provision for finalising your ASCHP application, your application will unfortunately be archived and you will have to re-apply and forfeit any payments made.

There is a non-refundable evaluation fee of R210.00 to be made out to the ASCHP when issuing this quick evaluation form before we can determine the relevant designation.

All documents must be certified and not be older than 3 months.
