A CIRI membership offers significant value through the many Professional
Development, Publications and Advocacy benefits. In addition, there are
a number of 'hidden gems' included with the membership package. These
'hidden gems' include:
Mentorship Program
New IROs may find the profession daunting at first due to its complex
and multidisciplinary nature. That is why CIRI's Ontario, Québec,
Alberta and British Columbia chapters offer a Mentorship Program to
their members.
These programs pair leading IR professionals (mentors) with those fairly
new to IR (protégés) for strategic one-on-one meetings to help the
protégé achieve specific career development goals. While working towards
the protégé's goals, the mentorship team shares ideas, perspectives and
experiences. Each team meets several times over six months.
The Ontario, Québec, Alberta and British Columbia programs offer mentors
a rewarding leadership experience, while providing all participants the
benefits of connecting with another colleague in the profession.

Volunteer Advisory Network
CIRI's Volunteer Advisory Network is a vehicle where CIRI members help
other CIRI members. This resource lists CIRI members with public
companies who are willing to volunteer their time and expertise to help
other CIRI members on a vast range of investor relations topics.

Refer a Friend Program
Any current CIRI member who refers a new member to CIRI will receive a $100.00 credit.
You are already telling people about CIRI and the many great benefits of
membership, so why not reap the rewards from a referral. Direct your
prospective referral to CIRI.org to apply online. Once their membership
is processed you will receive a $100.00 credit.
This $100.00 credit can be used on your:
-
Annual Conference registration;
-
Essentials of IR registration; or
-
The next year's annual membership renewal dues.

Three-For-One Program
If one company is referenced on three new member applications within the
same calendar year, that company will receive either a new CIRI
membership free; a full refund on an existing CIRI membership; or a free
renewal of next year's dues of an existing membership (both free
membership and refund excludes the optional NIRI package).
