I urge you all to take the plunge and go for gold... well corporate membership at least. Those of you with four years experience in the industry who are licentiates, graduates, associates or affiliates could step up to become full corporate members of the Institution. I suspect the only thing stopping you applying is the fear of the professional interview. Pioneering work in the North West is doing much to overcome this fear and has had fantastic results over the last year in getting candidates to apply to be upgraded and, more to the point, getting them painlessly and successfully through the professional interview. The results are spectacular and plans are in hand to roll it out right across the UK. A big pat on the back to Claire Nicoll, the regional development officer who devised and implemented the process.
