Changes to CIPD Membership Criteria

So change is all around us - what fun! We now have the opportunity to embrace the radical changes that are afoot.

For example:

  • a qualification is not a guarantee of a grade of CIPD Membership
  • membership will be about what you know, how you apply that knowledge in the workplace and the behaviours you use
  • membership is not about time served; it is about your work role

The grades are:

  • Companion - by invitation only
  • Fellow
  • Member
  • Associate
