Becoming an IRRV Member

30/06/2008/ 1057

The IRRV is the largest professional institution operating in the field of revenues, benefits and valuation. IRRV Member grades are structured in a way to ensure that there is a grade of membership for everyone working in local authorities and public and private sector valuation. Most new members will join the IRRV as one of two grades - as an Affiliate of Student.

The Institute keeps its members informed of current issues and provides opportunities for further professional and personal development and the sharing of best practice. Its qualifications and Continuing Professional Development scheme are designed to meet the needs of members at every stage of their careers and its conferences and meetings offer opportunities for networking with other professionals from the UK and overseas. A thriving network of Associations is one of IRRV’s main strengths. The Associations organise programmes of professional and social activities that take place regionally and provide the opportunity for members to become more involved in the work of the Institute.
