Member Benefits

There are many benefits to being an ICS Member, both for your career development and in terms of exclusive offers from our selected partners.

  

Career Recognition

  • European-wide, industry-recognised endorsement of your experience and qualification with post-nominal letters to signify your professionalism – AMICS, MICS and FICS.
  • Access to the Chartered IT Professional (CITP) qualification awarded by ICS. CITP offers you the opportunity to promote your skills and dedication to IT and provides internationally recognised accreditation for your qualification. 

  

Career Development

  • Free or discounted entry to all ICS lectures by well-known and respected professionals, on topical issues of relevance. ICS lectures cover technical, management and personal development subjects.
  • Whole and half-day seminars are run periodically by the ICS to cover major topics in depth and are free to ICS Members. For these seminars, the ICS attracts renowned international experts and local specialists to present a range of views. These seminars are regarded as the best on offer, timely, topical, unbiased, relevant, informative and value for money. Surveys of attendees consistently elicit ratings of 'very good' to 'excellent' for all aspects of these seminars.
  • Discounted entry to event programs of affiliated societies and organisations.

  

Networking Opportunities

  • ICS membership gives you numerous occasions to gather information, make introductions and network with your peers. As well as the scheduled lectures and seminars there are occasional member-only social events which are run at least every quarter.
  • The ICS encourages the formation of Special Interest Groups (SIGs) for targeted networking and sharing of specialist knowledge. The ICS will facilitate the administration of these groups.
  • On-line networking is possible through the members-only area of the ICS website. Email, discussion boards and a member's directory allow disparate members to communicate effectively on topics of mutual interest.
