Do I need an affiliation number?

Created by Sasha Jones, Modified on Fri, 20 Jan 2023 at 01:00 PM by Sasha Jones

If you are a registered psychiatrist, psychologist, registered counsellor, social worker, occupational therapist or nurse, you need a professional affiliation number that is linked to the relevant regulating body for your profession, for example the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA).


If you are a wellness counsellor, you need to provide us with your certificate showing your level of competence.


If you are a certified coach, the course that you completed to become a certified coach needs to be registered with an affiliating body such as the International Coaching Federation (ICF) or Coaches and Mentors of South Africa (COMENSA).
