CDI membership provides me with access to a powerful community of careers professionals and a valuable collective body of knowledge to draw from, as well as reassurance and support when I've worked in more isolated roles.

For clients, my membership demonstrates my ongoing commitment to delivering professional and high-quality services that meet and align with the CDI Code of Ethics.

Of all my qualifications, these badges (CDI member and registered professional badges) represent the ones hardest earned. [Completing the] qualifications was so worth it to learn more, to share best practice with other professionals and to simply confirm I knew my 'stuff'!

I am a strong advocate of professionalism and to that end, fully support the CDI in safeguarding a minimum ethical and educational requirement in its membership to secure a high standard of care to the public.

Registration provides me with a professional framework on which to develop my career guidance and coaching practice. I am passionate about enabling individuals to learn, develop and decide how they reach their potential in society and believe registration enhances the transparency and credibility of our work.

Through membership of the CDI and inclusion on the UK Register of Career Development Professionals we can assure clients and professional partners that they are working with practitioners operating to the highest quality and ethical standards
