Welcome to your branch Winter E-Newsletter

From everyone at the Cumbria CIPD branch we wish you and your families all the very best for the Holiday season.

As chair I would like to thank all the volunteers on the committee who have made this past year such a success. I would also like to thank Hazel Duhy for her unfailing support to the committee over the last few years and to welcome Gary Hewins into the role of Regional Brach Co-ordinator.

The next event is in February 2012. For details of next years events follow this link http://www.cipd.co.uk/branch/cumbria/events and I sincerley hope you will come along and join us at one of the events next year.

Want to be updated on your local branch activities?
 

You can now sign up to receive fortnightly updates from your local branch. 

The Cumbria Branch does not send out updates every fortnight and will only e-mail and up-date you before key events. This will act as an event reminder and will provide information on any last minute changes or cancellations.

Your Policy Update is a less frequent email providing the latest policy updates and gives you an opportunity to engage in consultations.

Anyone can subscribe to either or both email updates, from as many branches as they wish.

Be sure to sign up for this as it’s the only way your branch can contact you via email. Subscribing to Your Branch Updates is free, so sign up today 

 
Are you ready to get the professional recognition you deserve?
 

Calling all CIPD Graduate members, Chartered Members and Student members!

If you can demonstrate that you’re working at a professional level of CIPD membership, shouldn’t you upgrade to professional membership?

CIPD professional membership is the benchmark for best practice in HR, as it speaks volumes for your personal and professional credibility. Unsurprisingly it’s also valued by employers as it shows that you apply your professional knowledge in the workplace, contributing towards organisational success.
So what are you waiting for?

Apply today using our straightforward process or if you feel you need some guidance please attend one of our upgrading Workshops.

7 February 2012 - University of Cumbria, Fusehill Street, Carlisle

Both events 5.00pm - 7.00pm (inc refreshments)

To book a place on either of these events please contact Gary Hewins at g.hewins@cipd.co.uk or ring 01565 755527.

1) Check your eligibility to decide which level of professional membership you can apply for.
2) Complete your application form and return with your CV
3) Ask two colleagues to confirm your application
4) Pay your upgrade fee (recent Student and Graduate members are eligible for one free upgrade application).
