  5. Accreditation Arrangements The Academy will recognise all the ILTHE’s previously accredited programmes and collaborative accreditation agreements, until such time as an overall review of professional standards takes place.  When the Academy opens its register of accredited practitioners, initially, only paid-up ILTHE members in good standing will be transferred automatically to the register

  6. Professional Standards • Professional standards will remain in the hands of practitioners, via the Academy’s Council • The Council will have a majority of elected registered practitioners • Practitioners will play a key role in the Academy’s working groups and committees
