• Brief outlines of projects in which they are involved and their role in them. (Not full Method Statements).
• Information about training undertaken and qualifications received.
• Copies of attendance certificates for Conferences, Seminars and Courses attended. At least 3 IDE CPD Points must be gained in each year.

At the end of the two year period the Associate Member will be invited to submit his or her diary, portfolio and updated CV to the Membership Committee.
