It is a condition of studying the Advanced Certificate that you become a member of the CIPR for the duration of your studies. If you are not currently a member you will need to complete the membership section within the online course application form. The membership fee of £145 is a special reduced rate for UK based students and will last for a fixed term.
Please do not contact the Membership Department separately as they will not be able to deal with queries for course applicants until the course application form has been received and processed by the CIPR.
If you are already a member of the CIPR you don't need to do anything and our Membership Department will contact you when your membership is due for renewal.
