Membership Committee
The CISI's Membership Committee is made up of senior figures in the
financial services sector who meet regularly to support the development of
the Institute's membership policies.
Key priorities:
-
To act as a 'brainstorming' group to assist in the formulation of future
strategy and development
-
To help research the needs of members to ensure that the Institute
provides them with 'value for money' services and benefits
- To help formulate strategies that will recruit new members.
The Membership Committee also ratifies all applications for Members (MCSI
by Experience), assesses those that are judged as borderline in terms of
eligibility and assists in the assessment of the CPD records of CISI
members randomly selected for auditing under the CISI CPD Scheme.
