For IAHIP Accreditation, Re-Accreditation, Supervision Accreditation and Supervision Re-Accreditation all supervisors, whether individual or group supervisors, must be either:

1. IAHIP accredited supervisors, or 
2. supervisors accredited as such by other equivalent organisations acceptable to IAHIP, and who agree to work in a way that is congruent with the supervisee’s orientation as a humanistic and integrative psychotherapist/supervisor.

The current list of the other equivalent organisations acceptable to IAHIP is as follows:

• Association for Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy in Ireland (APPI) 

• Irish Analytical Psychology Association (IAPA) 

• Irish Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP) (subject to Memorandum of Understanding of 26^th April 2024)

A supervisor who can demonstrate that they are psychotherapeutically trained to the level of EAP standards, (https://www.europsyche.org/quality-standards/eap-standards/) may be acceptable on a case-by-case basis.  The burden of providing sufficient evidence lies with the applicant for accreditation/reaccreditation.
