Corporate Membership demonstrates your organisation’s commitment to excellence in the public sector and provides organisational benefits for leaders and staff. Government departments and agencies large and small, including statutory bodies, local governments and government enterprises are Our Corporate Members, as well as organisations that work with government.
At leadership level, Corporate Membership offers high level partnering, networking, leadership development and support. It also provides tailored professional development to enhance and build the capability of your staff. Your staff become Corporate Associates of the Institute and receive discounts and priority booking.
