Did you know that more than 10% of ILM members are serving in or have served in one of the armed services?
We understand the issues you face with the transition from the armed services to civilian life and getting started on a second career. We can help you get recognition for the skills and training you received while in the forces.
We have mapped military training courses to ILM qualifications, so even if you haven’t achieved formal management-related qualifications you can still join ILM at a membership grade that recognizes your achievements:
