About this Event
As you may be aware, over the last few months, a complete overhaul and review of the RPS Distinctions Programme has been ongoing and has now been completed. At the heart of the updated programme is a clearer progression through the three Distinction levels:
Licentiate (LRPS) recognises a sound level of photographic ability and provides an accessible first step into the Distinctions Programme.
Associate (ARPS) recognises a high level of photographic achievement, with applicants demonstrating an individual approach and a developed body of work.
Fellowship (FRPS) is the RPS's highest Distinction, recognising exceptional photographic achievement and a significant, sustained and highly developed body of work.
This session will only cover LRPS and could be up to three hours.
The Licentiate criteria are set out on the following web pages: Licentiate Please read carefully as they contain a great deal of useful information.
