Garda Vetting
The State has introduced Garda Vetting for Counsellors / Psychotherapists, and the IACP are here to make it easy as possible for its members and to help them in whatever way they can.
The Gardaí have introduced a new eVetting system which is designed to be easy and straightforward to follow, and will minimise waiting times for applications.
The IACP have a responsibility to ensure that the Association provides a safe, secure and professional service for all stakeholders. It also endeavours to ensure that Garda Vetting is part of a wider process ensuring the protection and safety of all vulnerable members of the community.
The IACP is committed to ensuring the safety and welfare of all people attending its accredited Counsellors and Psychotherapists. As a ‘Relevant Organisation’, all of our accredited, pre-accredited and student members (1st year students exempt) are subject to vetting procedures as part of the accreditation and membership process.
The IACP commenced Garda Vetting in November 2015.
