Family and Systemic Psychotherapist: no assessment organisation appointed
The quietest risk on the register, because nothing about it stops you enrolling.
Family and Systemic Psychotherapist at Level 7 is approved for delivery but has no assessment organisation appointed. Level 7, 24 months, maximum funding £16,000, reference ST1310, currently at version 1.1.
Historically a standard reaching approved status arrived with an assessment organisation already in place, so the two were treated as the same milestone. The volume of revisions moving through the system has separated them.
The consequence is a timing gap rather than a block. On a 24-month programme an organisation is usually appointed well before the first cohort reaches gateway. The shorter the programme, the thinner that margin.
What to do about it: before committing a cohort, check the register for an appointment and ask how long the process is expected to take against your planned end dates. Put the answer in your risk register rather than assuming it resolves itself. Where the gap is uncomfortable, an earlier version of the standard may still be open for starts, which buys time — but check which funding rules apply to that start date first.
