What advice is given to QP applicants with respect to membership of the Institute of Biology?
The IoB’s advice to prospective QP applicants is that it is in their own interest to satisfy the IoB regarding the extent of their professional experience in biology. Applicants should EITHER hold Chartered Biologist (CBiol FIBiol or CBiol MIBiol) status, OR should be a Fellow (FIBiol), Member (MIBiol) or Associate Member (AMIBiol) who qualified on the basis of a formal course of study lasting not less than three years full-time or equivalent.
