Note that membership is not automatic following success in our exams. Neither is it obligatory. Successful candidates need to apply for membership (Membership, Licentiateship, Affiliateship or Associateship) separately. Any queries about membership should be sent to forensic.medicine@fflm.ac.uk. Membership benefits can be found here. Candidates will know that membership is required if you wish to use the postnominals, as we are obliged to ensure that anyone using the postnominals is in good standing with our Faculty. If candidates choose not to apply for membership, they cannot use the postnominals. Our exams are recognised and form part of candidates’ CVs.

If you have questions on any of our courses, training and/or events please contact forensic.medicine@fflm.ac.uk.

Should you have any queries about our exams, after studying the relevant webpages and their documents, please email our Examinations Manager,  exams@fflm.ac.uk.
