Chartered Institute for Archaeology

18 PROFESSIONAL REGISTERS If you need archaeological work to be carried out, CIfA strongly recommends the use of a CIfA Registered Organisation or CIfA Registrierte Organisation and ideally a CIfA-accredited archaeologist. REGISTERED ORGANISATIONS are identifiable by the designations ‘CIfA Registered Organisation’, ‘CIfA Registrierte Organisation’ or ‘registered as an organisation with the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists’, and by using the Registered Organisation logo in promotional literature. A CIfA Registered Organisation is led by experienced Members (MCIfA) of the institute who have a track record of responsibility for substantial projects. They have personally undertaken to be bound by the Code of conduct: professional ethics in archaeology, CIfA regulations and Standards and guidance, and are responsible for ensuring that all work undertaken by the organisation will comply with these requirements. The Register of Organisations includes all Registered Organisations of the Chartered Institute who have given us permission to include their details in line with GDPR. These organisations have undergone rigorous peer review through regular inspections by a panel (which include a site visit for organisations that undertake intrusive works) and are assessed by CIfA’s Registrations committee (organisations).

ACCREDITED INDIVIDUALS are identifiable by the designations PCIfA, ACIfA or MCIfA as post-nominals and by using the CIfA logo in promotional literature. A CIfA accredited individual has personally undertaken to be bound by the Code of conduct: professional ethics in archaeology, CIfA regulations and Standards and guidance, and are responsible for ensuring that all work undertaken by them reflects their level of responsibility and grade. The Directory of Accredited Professionals includes all accredited professionals of the Chartered Institute who have given us permission to include their details in line with GDPR. These individuals have undergone rigorous peer review through the application process and are assessed by the Validation committee.
