Have assured your FIAP Liaison Officer as late, as July this year, that the announced changes to the criteria would go ahead, FIAP have now changed their minds! At their Directory Board Meeting, held immediately before opening of the FIAP Congress in Singapore, they decided to defer the changes, and on the opening day of Congress announced that the changes to the criteria for AFIAP, EFIAP and MFIAP would not now come into force until the 1st July 2013.
This means that the 2013 submission of applications will now be subject to the criteria that were in forced in 2012. The relevant documents on the PAGB Website are being updated and if not already done, then they will be as soon as the Webmaster can implement the changes. The replacement documents will be annotated with the words "Post FIAP Congress". You should refer to them for full details.
I am aware that this change might well be greeted with enthusiasm by many, but there will be a number of others seeking EFIAP for whom the changes might be less welcome. Please understand that I have already made representations about these issues, but as was pointed out to me, there will always be some who lose out when changes are made.
