Regulatory Compliance Officer apprenticeship scheme

CTSI are pleased to announce that those who are looking to register as a Regulatory Compliance Officer apprentice, will be able to join the Institute under the category of ‘Student’ member.

We understand that clarification had been sought over this matter by existing members.

Those registering into the apprenticeship scheme will be able to work through the membership categories in the normal manner, once the candidate achieves the necessary qualifications they will move onto Associate membership, holding this until fully qualified, at which point the candidate will then move into the Full member category.

Membership will enable the apprentice to access the information available through the Institute and Branch network, along with the discounts available on training courses etc.

We hope that you would look to encourage any such candidate to join the Institute and make them aware of the benefits that membership brings.

Should you have any queries relating to this matter please contact membership@tsi.org.uk or call 01268 582 228.

Qualifications certificates

All students ratified at the February QAB meeting will now have received their certificates.
