  4. Supervisor Accreditation Letter or Certificate – Verification of supervisor-level membership or training.

  5. Student Verification Letter – A letter from both the training college and a professional body confirming student membership and active enrolment.

Only after these documents are reviewed and verified does ICPA approve a listing for publication.
