How to Change Your Password  

1. Quick Overview (What This Is & Why It Matters)

  • Your password is the key to your CIBA member profile, which holds your personal, compliance, CPD, and billing data. 

  • Changing it regularly or when compromised helps you meet CIBA’s terms (you must notify CIBA if your account is compromised). 

  • It protects your account from unauthorised access and ensures continuity of your membership privileges. 

Step-by-step guide to changing your password so your CIBA account stays safe and accessible.

  • Not confirming the new password field correctly.
