Hi Jackie
I am not a member of IQPS/IPA so cannot comment on the changes that have happened from that perspective, however, I wholeheartedly agree with you about a member of 5 years being able to become a fellow - it is one of the reasons that I look sceptically at any professional membership organisation; if they wish to offer higher status categories of member then it should reflect something they have achieved to merit it - either further study or 5 years logged CPD.
Many membership organisations have members who for whatever reason (eg geographically difficult to attend meetings, just want to keep an overview on the profession) do not play an active part and so wholesale promotion for holding membership over a set period of time is misleading.
