An ATMS Student member must not practise outside of the training institution’s supervised clinical practicum. (ATMS student membership is not suitable for practitioners who are in practice.) Most student members of ATMS qualify upon graduation for ATMS accredited (practitioner) membership. However in addition to your qualifications, we do have a few further requirements for accredited membership. So ATMS student membership does not guarantee qualification for later accredited membership.
