Mosques and community organisations
Help define the responsibilities and realities of local religious leadership.
For institutions
Working with institutions
Mosques, madrasas, chaplaincy providers and other institutions have an essential part to play in shaping workable, trusted standards.
Why engage
How institutions could use the framework
A future CMPS register could help institutions verify a practitioner’s recognised role, standing and scope of practice. Clear standards could support recruitment, development and consistent expectations across varied settings.
CMPS does not currently verify practitioners or endorse institutions. Employers and institutions remain responsible for their existing checks, safeguarding arrangements and legal duties.

Contributing to the standards
