A special formof Corporate Membership – this is for Town and Parish Clerks to access the benefits of Corporate Membership at an affordable price.
There are lots of great reasons to join the ICCM – let’s have a closer look at the benefits:
Expert support and advice from Technical Officers.
Whenever it’s needed you can reach out to our Technical Officers via email or phone and be sure of getting up to date advice and guidance that is specific to your set of circumstances. As we know in this sector the price of getting it wrong is high and our members often cite the support given as being an extremely valuable resource available only to members and well worth the membership fee on its own.
Reduced price access to the industry’s leading training courses.
Our unique training courses are offered at a significant discounted price to members, meaning that joining can pay for itself with this benefit alone. For example, discounts for members on the Introduction to CemeteryManagement for Parish & Town Clerks and savings on Granting, Exercising and Transferring Exclusive Rights of Burial combined is a bigger saving than the cost of this membership.
Additionally, you also get other Corporate Benefits such as:
Representation at Government level across the UK
The ICCM not only listens to its members it voices those views and concerns to Government helping to shape thinking, policy and legislation and the driving force behind the formation of the Corporate Arm of the ICCM back in January 2005.
