Membership of CGI Singapore Division
There are three stages to becoming a member of CGI Singapore Division
-
- Successful completion of the CGI CGQP examinations: Once you have done this you will be automatically transferred to the temporary grade of Graduate. After paying the graduate fee you will be entitled to use the designatory letters GradCG . At that point you can either accumulate the relevant work experience required for election to membership, or apply immediately for election to membership if you already have the work experience required.
-
- Gain relevant work experience: The definition of work experience is very broad. It includes general management and administration, accounting and financial management, company secretarial and legal work, insurance, information systems management and committee administration. And it can be gained in different types and sizes of organisations across all sectors. Relevant work experience gained while you are a student will count toward membership. We suggest that you keep an ongoing record of your work experience and get official confirmation of your employment dates, job title and duties if you change jobs. This will ensure that no relevant experience is overlooked when you come to make an application for election to Associate (ACG).
- Be recognised as a “fit and proper person: You will need two sponsors of professional status who have known you at least one year to recommend you.
All applications for election to membership of the CGI Singapore Division are approved by the Committee for Singapore (CFS) Membership Committee.
