Individual Membership and Grading

Membership is open to all those who are involved in or have an interest in operations, production and supply chain management.

Individual membership may be either corporate (Fellow or Member grades) with full entitlement to use the designatory letters after their names and vote at general meetings and in elections, or non-corporate (Associate and Student grades) with no such entitlement.

Applications for corporate grades are placed before the Institute’s Grading Panel, to ensure that they have the appropriate levels of qualifications and experience for the grade of membership requested.
