I've got to say I find the whole (s)he shouldn't be a MiFA cos they can't manage a site argument completely ridiculous Mr Hosty. The IfA already contains and represents numerous sub-disciplines within the heritage industry including Academics, Consultants, Project Managers, DC and HER officers, Site Staff (occasionally), Post-excavation Managers, Finds/Environmental Specialists and I'm sure I missed many others. Just because someone's an illustrator why shouldn't they be a MiFA? Why doesn't MiFA status illustrate what they've achieved in their career? (no pun intended). I also point out the the RICS has 17 specialisms ranging from 'Art & Antiques' to 'Dispute Resolution' but they all end up with the same AssocRICS, MRICS or FRICS after their names.
