What's everyone's thoughts on CIPD membership? Is it worth it? I'm seeing more and more folks out there mention that they don't feel like they get value from the resources they access via CIPD, and that it's money down the drain.... 💸 I've heard similar about AIHR too... I'm sure these things are all valuable in different ways, for certain amount of time, but i'd love to hear a little about what folks see as 'value' in the HR space. We're building our own membership offering at Open Org which includes: 👉 Access to a Progressive Resource Library 👉 Templates & Frameworks to use today 👉 An intentionally small, mighty people community building deep connections and supporting each other every day 👉 Access to us, as founders of Open Org for whatever help you need, big or small. Soundboard, vent, ideation, inspiration. All for £20p/m, of which you can cancel at any time 🙂 What do other HR folks want from memberships they sign up to? Would love to know....
