How can I pay for membership?
We offer a number of payment options, depending on where you are located. All members have the option to pay by direct/credit card or bank transfer. If your employer pays for your membership you can request an invoice at the checkout. Members in the UK also have the option to pay by direct debit (annually or monthly).
I have changed jobs and my employer used to pay for my membership, what should I do?
You can rejoin as an individual member or if your new employer has a corporate account we can move your membership to your new employer. This can be done at any time.
My employer has a corporate membership account. Can I be added to the scheme?
Yes. Your employer can add you to a corporate account at any time. To set this up you'll need to speak to the nominated rep within your organisation, if you are not sure who that is we'd suggest you speak to your HR department or contact our corporate support team corporate.membership@cii.co.uk
