Public Health Specialist

There are currently three routes to gain UKPHR specialist registration. UKPHR recognises all specialists on its register of equal value.

UKPHR only regulates public health professionals who practise in the UK – our remit is protection of the UK public. As we are a UK register, therefore registration with us is not recognised overseas. We do not regulate international public health professionals.

If you are currently based overseas but have experience of working as a senior public health professional within the UK, you are welcome to submit a SRbPA pre-application in accordance with the guidance. Before proceeding to submit a pre-application, please ensure that you are familiar with the requirements of maintaining your registration as a specialist, which will apply if you remain overseas.
