Sandra,
To initially register as a chartership candidate there is no fee. To submit
an application (i.e. a PDR, Portfolio or Proforma) costs £44. The fee to
officially register as an ALA and receive a certificate is £16. Both these
fees change annually, although not by much - they have only gone up by a
pound each on last year's figures.
Hope this helps.
