Serving you better
Member support
We understand that sometimes our members need support during challenging times in their careers. If you find yourself out of work for a period of time or you decide to leave the sector, our support schemes enable you to continue your membership at reduced rates.
We offer three schemes to cover special circumstances, which are available to anyone who has been a member of the Chartered Insurance Institute/Personal Finance Society continuously for at least one year from the date of application. You can apply for a support scheme over the phone or online at renewal.

Continued membership scheme
If you have left the sector, you can continue your membership and maintain your relationship with the CII through the continued membership scheme.

Membership support scheme
The membership support scheme helps those who are temporarily out-of-work through redundancy or unemployment, taking a career-break or on maternity/shared parental leave, who are not working through ill-health, working part-time or other special circumstances that may cause hardship in paying the full member fee.
This scheme enables you to continue your relationship with the CII with a 50% reduction in your subscription fee. Under the scheme you retain all the benefits of membership. This fee is payable at your normal renewal date.
