Your membership of the CQI is not static and unchanging. As your career develops, so your membership of the CQI adapts to suit your needs.

The modern quality professional works in an ever-changing environment where standards, business trends, and quality management practice is constantly changing.

IRCA registration is a way of demonstrating your commitment to ongoing career development.

Whether you are the only quality professional in your company, are trying to stand out from the crowd, or want your professionalism validated our membership structure is designed to support you.

There is a hierarchy to IRCA grades that reflect both the work that you do and the level of responsibility that you have.

IRCA’s grade structure offers you the opportunity to progress your career in auditing. As your responsibilities grow, so IRCA’s training and grades reflect your developmental needs and your scope of practice.

You can hold as many certifications as you want on different schemes (although you cannot hold more than one grade on the same scheme).

As an IRCA auditor you will be entitled to use the title ‘IRCA-certificated auditor’, and you can use the IRCA logo on your email, website and business documents.

CQI branches are led by members for members. The UK has a well-established network of 30 branches, and there are also branches outside the UK in locations such as Hong Kong and Australia.
