Setting up a new CQI Professional Network

Our networks include branches specific to geographical locations and special interest groups (SIGs), who exchange knowledge and provide professional development related to a certain industry or topic.  They are both supported by the Membership Council who are responsible for ensuring the good governance of member-led networks.  

Supported by the Professional Networks Team within the CQI Executive, these network volunteers help the CQI to fulfil our mission, uphold the Royal Charter and deliver our strategy. 

What are the benefits of volunteering at the CQI? 

• Meet like-minded people 

• Gain valuable CPD opportunities 

• Can help your career development and progression 

• Engage with local organisations 

Get involved  

We are looking to expand our networks over the next 18 months and to ensure that we are setting up the correct groups that will benefit members and add value to the profession, we would like to hear your proposals.

Is there a group in a specific sector, topic, demographic or geographic area that you would like to help set up?

To propose a new network, you must: 

• Be a CQI or IRCA Member 

• Have sufficient time for commitment to the network  

• Have no conflicts of interest with the proposed network
