Who we are 
The College of Fellows was established in 2002 and comprises those members who are Fellows and Honorary Fellows of the Institute. As a senior network of the Institute, the College works to support the Institute’s vision, values and strategy.

- Awards and College Membership Committee
- Ethics and Professional Conduct Committee
- Standards Committee
- Research Committee
