CIPD Membership Value

I stay a member largely for the communities and the occasional use of the information resources on the website.

I don't access or use any of the other services

Yes, Communities and professional information services can in themselves be most valuable indeed, but some of us have been banging-on for ages that CIPD could add immensely to membership value were they to begin to provide services to members who find themselves in professional difficulties / trouble - more in line with those available from eg medical professionals’ bodies such as those of doctors or nurses or radiologists etc

Agree with Keith and David. the communities and resources / knowledge base allow access to information that would cost a fortune if purchased on an "as needed" basis.
A single reply that brings a solution to a thorny employment law question would cost several years of subscriptions if it were bought from a law firm.......
