If you’ve made a significant contribution to addressing ecological and environmental management issues, then Fellowship, our highest level of membership, could be for you.
I have found being a Fellow has given me many opportunities to get involved in some excellent discussions and projects, both within the Institute and on behalf of it.
The Role of a Fellow
Fellowship demonstrates your endorsement of your leadership, knowledge, skills and experience. But equally, we benefit from having highly respected people in the profession, who can inspire and enthuse others through their activities and work.
It is hoped that Fellows will want to contribute to our work through a range of rewarding activities, including offering strategic advice, participating in working groups and providing thought leadership.
Now that I am a senior member of the profession I have started to think about legacy and my Fellowship provides the opportunity to assist in moving the profession forwards.
Could you become a CIEEM Fellow?
Becoming a Fellow is a public statement that you are recognised by your peers as having made, and continuing to make, a significant contribution to addressing the ecological and environmental management challenges facing people and ecosystems around the world. It is an endorsement of your leadership, knowledge and skills.
As a Fellow, you will have the opportunity to use your expertise and experience to affect positive change in the Institute and the profession. You will also have opportunities to engage in the big debates with key stakeholders, such as businesses and governments.
Through Fellowship we hope that you will deepen your engagement with the Institute and fellow members, helping to shape its future direction whilst continuing to develop your own professional knowledge and experience. You will be invited to participate in the annual Fellows Forum, in specialist working groups and committees and advisory groups.
Put simply, Fellows are at the forefront of our profession. They are inspiring leaders, shapers and achievers who are highly respected and who, hopefully, want to give something back to the Institute and its members.
Does this sound like you?
