Joining CIM

I am delighted to announce that Sandy Lindsay, formerly of the Marketing Society, is joining CIM North West. You will hear more about that in the weeks to come but, it has got me on a train of thought from discussions with people about joining The Chartered Institute of Marketing that I felt should be aired in this medium.

The perception is that you cannot join as a professional member of The Institute without our qualification. That is not true. You can join The Institute without any prior qualifications or experience and enjoy our membership benefits, but you would not be able to use any letters after your name such as ACIM or MCIM. However, you can apply to join as a professional member with a range of qualifications and experience. So, if this has been stopping you in the past then get in touch today. Our Membership Services Team will be able to advise you on the best route to membership. http://www.cim.co.uk/ or call 01628 427120.
