Latest news on APIOL in Scotland

Interest in the Accredited Practitioner scheme continues to grow; eight new candidates attended an induction meeting in April, joining seven others who are currently working their way through the process. All of this is due to the hard work and committment of all the volunteers concerned. Big thanks!
This success has led to the creation of a new part-time, paid post in Scotland. Tony McClelland was recently appointed as Professional Development Officer (Scotland) and will take over the roles of the APIOL coordinator and moderator. He will also be involved with the delivery of other IOL development opportunities and will support the work of the committee.
