Why Register with CNHC?

CNHC is a voluntary register accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA), the independent body accountable to Parliament that oversees standards in health and care. This accreditation provides additional reassurance to the public, healthcare professionals, and potential clients that registered practitioners meet recognised standards of training, conduct, and professional practice.

Becoming CNHC registered demonstrates your commitment to:

  • High professional standards
  • Safe and ethical practice
  • Continuing Professional Development (CPD)
  • Working within an agreed Code of Conduct
  • Providing reassurance to clients and healthcare professionals

Registration can also enhance your professional credibility and help clients feel confident in choosing a qualified Reiki practitioner.

Which Route Applies to You?

Route 1: I Trained with a UKRF Approved Course Provider

If you completed your Reiki training with a UKRF Approved Course Provider and meet the required standards, your application process is usually more straightforward.

Route 2 : I Trained with Another Reiki Organisation or Teacher

If your Reiki training was not completed through a UKRF Approved Course Provider, you may still be eligible. Our Individual Verification (APL) process enables experienced practitioners to demonstrate that their knowledge, training and professional practice meet the standards required for CNHC registration. You must also have been in professional practice for at least three years.

Route 3 : I'm Not Currently a UKRF Member

You do not have to be a UKRF member to apply for verification. Non-members are welcome to undertake the verification process, although different fees may apply.

How the Verification Process Works

  1. Initial Eligibility Check
  2. Register Online
  3. Complete Your Portfolio
  4. Assessor Support
  5. Verification
  6. Apply to CNHC

Online Assessment

Our verification programme is delivered through our secure online learning platform. You can access the assessment at any time, save your progress, upload evidence electronically, receive feedback from your assessor and complete the process from anywhere in the UK.

How Long Does It Take?

Most applicants complete the verification process within nine months. If you need additional time, simply contact us and we’ll do our best to support you.

What You’ll Need

Depending on your route, you may be asked to provide evidence of your Reiki training, course certificates, case studies, reflective practice, professional practice documentation or other supporting evidence.
