News Flash! BPS Accreditation of Griffiths III

July 15, 2025

You are here: Home / News / News Flash! BPS Accreditation of Griffiths III

Griffiths III is now officially accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS)

As you will see from the above logo, we are thrilled to announce that the Griffiths III has now been officially accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS) and is a BPS-registered test.


This is a significant milestone for ARICD, as BPS accreditation confirms that the Griffiths III meets rigorous professional standards for validity, reliability, and ethical use, in line with the European Federation of Psychologists’ Associations (EFPA) test review model.


We strongly encourage you to read the full BPS test review. If you are interested, please contact us at info@aricd.ac.uk, and we will be happy to send you the pdf version.


Achieving this accreditation was a major undertaking, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone at ARICD who contributed. In particular, we wish to acknowledge Professor Louise Stroud, Dr Elizabeth Green and Dr Johan Cronje, who worked tirelessly to compile and submit the detailed documentation required.


We would also like to thank our publishers and the Hogrefe team, whose collaboration and support were essential in submitting the final application materials. This recognition is a testament to the dedication and hard work of everyone involved.
