10. Focus on Professional Memberships
Level Up your Career
We are in the driving seat when it comes to our own careers. In this episode we explore how to build a portfolio career from single employers, to working across multiple industries. Careers used to be driven by employers, now working professionals need to own their own career development, seeking out opportunities to grow.
Helping people excel is a big part of the value that professional membership organisations bring. This week our focus topic is all about professional memberships, why join a membership organisation and how do you make the most of the opportunities they provide?

- Are internships a good place to begin?
- What role do apprenticeships have for the early career professional?

Focus On the role of memberships
Our focus topic this week is all about Professional Memberships. Eileen J Roden will share her thoughts on how to find and select a professional membership body, why becoming a member can help you in your career and what kinds of benefits you might expect to receive.
Membership Organisations provide a framework for gathering ideas, sharing information and emerging best practice. Many have developed extensive bodies of knowledge reflecting the collective creativity of members over many years. In addition to regular meetings many deliver a range of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) to help members keep their practice up to date.
