4. 5-yearly revalidation for specialists

The purpose of revalidation is to conduct a more rigorous check than at each annual renewal so as to monitor fitness to practise and promote improvement in the quality of public health practice.

UKPHR’s Board have agreed to implement revalidation for all specialist registrants from 1st April 2019.

You will be contacted 6 months prior to your revalidation date with a request to submit your application. Reminders will follow until you acknowledge your upcoming deadline. If your application is not received in full before your revalidation date, you will be provided a 15 working day grace period to submit your application, in this time your status will remain “active” and name visible on the public Register.

If a satisfactory application is not received within the 15 working day grace period, your status will become “lapse” and your name no longer visible on the public Register. Should you wish to reinstate your “active” status, you will be required to apply for restoration, which may incur a restoration admin fee. For more information on how to apply for restoration, please click here.

The requirements for revalidation are as follows:

  • Confirmation of engagement in annual Professional Appraisal
  • Confirmation of engagement in annual Personal Development Planning
  • Health & Conduct declaration
  • Confirmation of Indemnity arrangements
  • Evidence of CPD within a five year registration cycle
  • Quality Improvement Activity – demonstrated by completion of a 360 feedback report completed within a five year registration cycle using a tool approved by UKPHR. You can find a list of tools approved by UKPHR here
  • Confirmation of Compliance via reference
