Association of Cosmic Ordering Practitioners

CODES OF PRACTICE
All members of the AoCOP are required to abide by existing codes appropriate to them. They thereby accept a common frame of reference within which to manage their responsibilities to clients, colleagues, and members of this Association and the wider community. This code aims to provide a framework for addressing ethical issues and to encourage optimum levels of practice.

This AoCOP has a disciplinary procedure, which can lead to the expulsion of members
for breaches of its Codes of Ethics and Practice.

Accountability builds public confidence and trust and ensure that the work of the profession is in the public interest.

Disreputable Practitioners
Reputable practitioners follow a strict set of rules and knowing what to look out for can save you a lot of time and money. There are some unregistered practitioners using underhanded methods such as e-mailing you with special deals that are too good to be true. Outlandish claims are made that cannot be fulfilled, with unbelievable sales offers. Don't trust them, there's a reason why the saying 'too good to be true' exists.
All AoCOP members are fully qualified Cosmic Ordering practitioners, many with approved skills in related holistic and therapeutic disciplines.
