Fitness to Practise. 17.1 If your course is intended to provide access to a regulated profession, such as an NHS professional course, your fitness to practise is assessed under our Fitness to Practise: Procedure (see xxx.xxxxxxxxxxx.xx.xx/ important-information, under Conduct and Welfare). The Procedure takes into account the requirements of relevant professional codes of conduct set by the appropriate professional and regulatory bodies and is updated to reflect changes in those requirements.
Fitness to Practise penalties: The Fitness to Practise Panel may refer a matter to a professional body. The professional body may investigate under its own procedures and impose its own penalties. The Fitness to Practise Panel will consider this when considering penalties. See paragraph 28 (Financial arrangements on withdrawal, suspension or other interruption) for more information about fees, refunds and access to funding if you are withdrawn or suspended. See the Fitness to Practise Procedure for more information. For example, penalties may include: • Written warnings, which will remain on your record for a period of time and can be revived if there is a further incident • Suspension from your course for a period of time • A requirement to resubmit work, re-sit an examination or repeat a unit, or repeat a level • A mark of 0%, or a capped mark for the relevant item, or for a whole unit or level • Withdrawing you from your course, in some cases without credit. We will inform the relevant professional body about the outcome of the Fitness to Practise Panel, unless the matter is dismissed. We may disclose the issue and the outcome in references that we give to prospective employers. See paragraph 28 (Financial arrangements on withdrawal, suspension or other interruption) for more information about fees, refunds and access to funding if you are withdrawn or suspended. If you are on an NHS professional course and in receipt of an NHS bursary, you will need to notify the NHS Student Services Office, see paragraph 28.2.
Fitness to Practise. 12.1 The Student Fitness to Practise Policy and Procedures is for students enrolled on courses leading to professional registration. It provides a framework for the University College to exercise its duty in the public interest that students following degrees leading to professional health and social care qualifications meet relevant professional standards for fitness to practise, including professional attitudes and professional behaviours. The policy is available from the Latest Policies webpage and on the VLE for enrolled students under Policies for Students.

Fitness to Practise. If you are applying for a course that leads to registration with a professional body, (e.g. Nursing, Social Work), once you have received an offer you may be contacted regarding certain health and immunisation criteria and your place may be conditional upon your suitability. In addition to enrol onto your course, you may also be required by the professional body (e.g. the NHS) to present a Code of Professional Conduct and Fitness to Practise statement. This additional information will include mental health and welfare considerations and failure to meet the required Fitness to Practise standard will lead to the University withdrawing its offer to you. Adherence to the Fitness to Practise Standards is an ongoing requirement throughout your enrolment at the University and any change in your circumstances that may affect your Fitness to Practise should be declared to the University, may be investigated in accordance with the Fitness to Practise Standards, and could result in you being withdrawn from your course. [See General Regulations Appendix 7 clause 5].
Fitness to Practise. Dentists and dental care professionals must meet certain requirements at initial registration and then on an on-going basis throughout their career in order to practise. If their fitness to practise is called into question, by means of a complaint, conviction or a caution, they may be subject to the GDC’s fitness to practise (FTP) processes. Matters which suggest possible impairment of fitness to practise are referred to an Investigating Committee (IC) panel. The IC panel consists of registrants and lay people, appointed by the GDC, through a process separated from the executive management of the GDC. An Investigating Committee may decide that no further action is required or that an advice or warning letter would be sufficient. In potentially more serious cases, the IC panel may refer the matter to one of three Practice committees: the Professional Conduct Committee (PCC); the Professional Performance Committee (PPC); or the Health Committee (HC) for a formal hearing. Registrants referred to a Practice Committee will appear before an independent panel of lay and registrant members in a formal hearing. The GDC and the registrant both have the right to legal representation. At all stages of our procedures, the Interim Orders Committee can suspend a registrant’s registration or use conditions to restrict their practice. Where the GDC finds that a registrant is not fit to practise, it has powers to: remove that registrant’s name from the register; suspend the registrant from the register; or place conditions on the registrant’s practice.
