Your profile is the foundation of your membership journey. The more complete and accurate your information, the better we can support you - with smoother applications, personalised support, automated compliance tracking, and relevant professional recognition..
1. Creating Your Online Profile
2. What You Need to Know
When you register with CIBA, you’re creating your official professional profile. This profile captures your personal details, qualifications, and career history — forming the basis for your membership and future designations.
The process has two stages:
Set up your CIBA profile and activate your membership: complete your details, upload ID and CV, and pay your annual membership fee.
Build on your profile with a professional designation: apply for the designation that matches your role, and add supporting documents, assessments, and CPD.

Leaving your profile incomplete.

Assuming membership = designation.
Do this instead: Remember — you must apply separately for your designation in the portal.
