Governance, standards and professional accountability
The Association for IEMT Practitioners
The Association for IEMT Practitioners is the professional membership organisation for Integral Eye Movement Technique practitioners. Established in 2015, it supports public protection, practitioner competence, approved training, continuing professional development and the responsible development of IEMT internationally.
The Association maintains an online policy framework, professional standards, certification and accreditation routes, a Voluntary Register, complaints and disciplinary procedures, safeguarding guidance, member services and relationships with approved trainers and international offices.

Professional accountability
Membership and certification carry ongoing responsibilities. Practitioners are expected to work within their competence and scope of practice, maintain appropriate records and insurance, undertake continuing professional development, follow the current policy framework and cooperate with safeguarding, complaints and disciplinary processes where required.
The Association’s standards are intended to protect clients, support practitioners and maintain confidence in IEMT training and practice. Policies may be revised as professional expectations, legal responsibilities and organisational learning develop, so the online policy index should be consulted for the current version.
