Please get in touch with the membership administrator by emailing members@cilt.ie We may require additional information from you regarding the reasons for upgrading your membership. These may be a change in roles within your career, further education or a combination of the two.


I don’t get the weekly Ezine/Newsletter Emails – why is this?
This could be for a variety of reasons:

-        The ezine is being sent to your junk mail – you will need to ‘Mark it as Safe’ so it appears in your inbox and not as junk / spam.

-        You have changed jobs – many individuals use a work email to receive the Ezine and move on to other employment. It is your responsibility to keep CILT updated, please email us to change address.

-        You may have opted out of the Ezine some time ago, if you wise to receive it again please email us stating you would like to go back on the Ezine list.

-        It may be blocked by your work email – please contact your IT section to ask them.
