On 14 June, the Department for Business and Trade launched a new digital service, the Regulated Professions Register (RPR), which provides information about 200 regulated professions in the UK in one place on GOV.UK.
The service provides information on professions that are regulated by law (e.g. doctors), and some that are covered by accreditation schemes overseen by organisations with a royal charter (e.g. engineers).
The RPR provides a single place for professionals and businesses interested in knowing more about working in regulated professions in the UK. The service signposts individuals to their chosen profession, offers them information about how the profession is regulated and by whom, and provides contact details for the relevant regulator.
Please do use the free service to find out details on regulated roles and professions.
