1. Scope
GIPMD membership is granted to the practitioner named in this application, or to the organisation that applies in its own name. It is not a licence to practise and it cannot be transferred or shared.
2. True and complete information
The applicant confirms that the experience, credentials and documents supplied are genuine and current, and agrees that GIPMD may verify them with employers, clients and awarding bodies. Misstated experience or credentials lead to refusal or cancellation without refund.
3. Professional conduct
Members report project status honestly, declare conflicts of interest, respect confidential project and client information, and do not claim a GIPMD credential, grade or endorsement they have not been awarded.
4. Term and fees
Membership runs for the period paid for, from the day it is activated. Fees are payable in advance and are not refundable once the membership certificate has been issued. A membership that is not renewed by its last day lapses, and the certificate and membership number may no longer be used.
5. Continuing development
Members are expected to keep their project management knowledge current. GIPMD may ask for a record of professional development when a membership is renewed.
6. Public verification
The membership certificate stays the property of GIPMD. Its validity can be checked on the public verification page, where GIPMD may show the member name, country, membership number and dates.
7. Suspension
GIPMD may suspend or cancel a membership for breach of these terms or for conduct that brings the profession into disrepute. The member may reply in writing within 14 days of the notice.
8. Personal data
GIPMD uses the information of this application to assess it, to manage the membership and to write to the member. It is not sold or passed on for marketing.
