Individuals apply online to join the Institute first. You will be sent a confirmation email welcoming you to the Institute and our Membership Team will contact you to explain the joining process. In most cases, we will require you to supply a copy of your CV. Once an application has been received it is processed by our Membership Team and the Membership Convenor. When your membership application is approved by the Convenor, you will be notified of your membership grade. Please Note: The Board of Directors have the Final Decision about what level of membership should be awarded to each applicant.
