In a formal first reference to a faculty or staff member, use the person's formal first name and last name followed by degree (if applicable) and lowercased job title. If the individual routinely uses his or her middle name, include it.

When a professional has earned more than one set of post-nominal letters, it is appropriate to display each set of letters after his or her name. This is done in descending order, with the most prestigious letters being first (closest to the name), followed by a comma, then the next set of letters and so on.

Those from the academic world use academic credentials first, nursing credentials next, and then certifications ? for example, Jane Arnold, MS, RN, CNOR. Either way is correct. The order in which you received them is irrelevant.

So, yours would be Firstname Lastname, BSc (Hons), MSc, MBPsS. (But BSc is rarely added except in formal listing, and Hons isn't really needed at all). You could further differentiate by listing where you received your degree from - for example, I could list Firstname Lastname, BSc Hons (Lanc), MSc (Bris), MBPsS.

If you have a degree, start by listing the highest degree you've earned immediately after your name, such as a master's degree, bachelor's degree or associate degree. If you have multiple degrees, you may choose to list only the highest degree you have earned since this often eclipses previous degrees.

Credentials are any certificate, diploma or licence you may have received throughout your career. They indicate your abilities to perform specific tasks, are proof of your academic achievements or certify your authority when training others, for example.

The Oxford style is to list qualifications by their title starting with bachelor's degrees, then master's degrees, then doctorates. Postgraduate Certificates and Diplomas are listed after doctorates, but before professional qualifications, with a similar ordering being used by other universities.
