Who is the Corporate Membership open to? Any organisation can benefit from Corporate Membership. The organisation could be a coaching organisation, or it could be a non-coaching organisation hiring coaches, or it could be a non-coaching organisation where employees of the organisation have an interest in coaching and in coaching skills.

One member of staff will be allocated as the main point of contact. This member of staff, maybe the business owner, the HR Director, the team leader, the project manager, the accountant, or anyone taking responsibility for the employees within their organisation. They will complete the relevant paperwork and on receipt of the organisations payment, the employees will be notified of their membership status. The employees receiving this benefit may all be Associate Members, may all be Accredited Coaches, or maybe a combination of Associate Members and Accredited Members.

Each employee is an individual member and as such will be provided with their own membership number and membership login.

Where an employee selects to leave the organisation, they will retain their membership. Membership with the IIC is granted to the individual and is therefore non-transferable, nor refundable. At the end of their membership period the organisation will be asked to confirm the employees within their Corporate Membership. Where an employee has left but wishes to retain their membership, they may renew their membership individually.
