About this event

Sharing reasons why upgrading to Chartered CIPD membership really matters”: how becoming Chartered will enhance your career progression

Dr Janice Johnson, Branch Membership Engagement Lead and Chartered Companion CIPD, wants you to join in with this CPD session.

The CIPD Branch in Bedfordshire and Milton Keynes continues to work with members on encouraging upgrading to Chartered membership. Dr Janice Johnson wants all branch members who have not yet managed to upgrade to Chartered membership to share in the personal stories of branch members who have achieved career progression through becoming Chartered Members and Fellows.

Chartered Members and Fellows will be encouraged to share their positive stories while ensuring that questions can be asked by attenders. Learn how to enhance your credibility, relevance and professionalism in a competitive market through upgrading your membership. Use this opportunity to meet recently upgraded members and ask those questions which explore the reasons preventing you from taking that next important step.

Attenders will gain takeaway tips during this CPD session for improving their principles led, evidence based and outcomes driven activities which should include reflective practice and upgrading.

This evening’s workshop features as a part of CIPD Continuing Professional Development because participants will:

• learn about the positive outcomes for people professionals gaining Chartered Membership
• understand the potential for personal and professional development
• hear about upgrading experiences, challenges and plans

No recording will be made.
