Could you not just take the the general requirements for a MIFA as the base? Something like must have degree plus 3 years relevant experience at the right level or 5 years without degree?

but that underlines the inaccuracy of the IfA levels. To get MIFA you can either work your butt of on sites and writing reports for years and years, doing 'the job'. Or you get a masters, get a management job delegating the actual job to people who know what they are doing, and cruise into a MIFA because of your level of responsibility!

If you actually read the new Validation Criteria you will see that 'Levels of responsibility' are no longer the criteria used for any fo the IfA corporate levels of membership, nor is time served at a specific level. This has been the case for some time. This was done to deal with the bumpy playing field which had developed as the profession became more diverse and roles more and more difficult to define en masse.
