Are You Eligible?

To apply via the international route, you must have trained and qualified outside
the UK in one of the HCPC-regulated professions, and must not have been
previously registered with the HCPC. HCPC accepts degree, diploma, or other
qualifications as the basis for an application.
Eligibility is determined by the content of your qualification – your theory hours,
practical hours, and clinical coverage – compared against UK Standards of
Proficiency. Many Indian diploma qualifications do not meet this standard.
Matrixx Overseas recommends a pre-application eligibility assessment before
proceeding, to avoid commi􀄌ing to a process that is unlikely to succeed.

Matrixx Overseas guides you through every stage of the HCPC application process,

from initial document verification to submission and follow-up. Our team ensures your                      qualifications are accurately mapped against UK Standards of Proficiency, helping you

avoid costly delays or rejections.
