List Of Professional Associations In The United Kingdom
The following is a list of professional bodies in the United Kingdom.

In cases where membership of or a professional qualification from either a chartered or non-chartered professional body is necessary to practice a profession or to hold a certain title, the European Professional Qualifications Directive requires that suitably qualified people from other states (without any charter) in the European Union are also allowed to practice or hold a title in the UK and vice versa.
