In November 2022 we signed a mutual recognition of membership agreement with the SABPP (South African Board for People Practices). So if you’re a CIPD Chartered Member, you can become a member of SABPP. And if you’re a SABPP Chartered or Master professional, you can become a member of the CIPD.
As part of the agreement you’ll also have full access to both CIPD and SABPP exclusive member benefits.
Please take a look below to see how the membership grades are matched:
- If you’re a Chartered Member (Chartered MCIPD) your grade of membership is equivalent to Chartered Human Resources Professional (CHRP).
- If you’re a Chartered Fellow (Chartered FCIPD) your grade of membership is equivalent to Master Human Resources Professional (MHRP).
How to join
