How the PCC links to professional recognition
Want professional recognition for your human factors experience through CIEHF membership, but not sure which grade to apply for? We can help you work it out. When you apply, assessors look at your PCC and log book, using a clear scoring guide (rubric) to judge your level of proficiency across the core competencies. We’ve simplified that rubric so you can do a quick self-check.
Use the sliders below to see what each band, from A (just starting out) to E (well-established authority), looks like in practice - and choose the one that fits you best.
(If you'd rather see this as a single table with all the summaries, you can. Download it now.)
