You can pay by:
- Direct debit, both monthly and annually
- Credit card, over the phone (and soon via online payments)
- Cheque (please make cheques payable to The Institute of Career Guidance)
You can join at any time during the year on a pro rata basis, although in subsequent years, fees will be invoice in April.
