FELLOW MEMBERSHIP
In terms of Clause 8.5.2 of the Constitution of the Institute, Corporate members who are deemed to have actively and effectively furthered the objects of the Institute and who have completed at least 10 years’ active service in the Disaster Management Profession, may submit a Career Portfolio to be admitted as a Fellow of the Institute.
In terms of Clause 8.5.3 of the Constitution of the Institute, Graduate members who are deemed to have actively and effectively furthered the objects of the Institute and who have completed at least 5 years’ active service in the Disaster Management Profession, may submit a Career Portfolio to be admitted as a Fellow of the Institute.
The awarding of fellowship to a member of the Institute, is the highest membership acknowledgement that can be granted to a member that serves the profession (Honorary Membership can only be bestowed on non-serving members and Life Membership to members who have retired). It therefore stands to reason that any such appraisal should be carefully scrutinised.
Career Portfolio: The career portfolio should not merely (only) be a CV, but specifically address the applicants’ service to Disaster Management on a national and/or international basis, which would have been in addition to what could have been expected of the individual, in his or her employment environment.
Service rendered to the Institute is also a key factor. From the career portfolio it must be clear that the prospective fellow must have had a very good and sound relationship with and within the Institute. Outstanding achievements in terms of the Institute must be apparent.
General acceptability of the Applicant, within the Institute and other role model aspects of a sound character, are qualities that must be reflected in the career portfolio, for consideration.
The career portfolio shall be counter signed by the Chief Executive Officer/City Manager (or similar designate at other levels of government) as well as the Chairperson of the Region.
