Chartered Scientist Registration
What is Chartered Scientist?
Chartered Scientist is a professional registration that recognises a high level of skill and experience independent of discipline. It provides recognition for professional practice and experience and thus complements the academic qualifications you might also have. Typically professionals need to have been working for 4-6 years to achieve this and must either have a Masters level qualification or be able to demonstrate that they are working at this level.
As it is independent of scientific discipline it provides parity across the different scientific careers. It is based on 15 broad scientific competencies and to apply you need to demonstrate and evidence how you meet all of these competencies in your daily work.
Chartered Scientist is accepted for the purposes of directive 2005/36/EC as a regulated profession with the Science Council appointed as the Competent Authority. The Directive works on the basic principle that an individual fully qualified to practice a regulated profession in one member state should be treated, in principle, as qualified to practice that same profession in another Member State.
