Member benefits

The website offers everyone access to the NICEC Journal (published twice per year in April and September) and archive and publications. In addition, Members benefit from:

Free access to NICEC events and priority booking

Each year we offer:

  • Four early evening seminars
  • Two full afternoon network meetings per year
  • Two research-focused Cutting Edge events run in conjunction with the Career Development Institute

Pre-Covid, events were typically held in London, with two or three each year elsewhere in the UK. Since the pandemic, all events have been online, but following our successful Conference in July 2024, we are looking to see if we can return to in face meetings for 1-2 events per year from 2025. Watch this space!

Priority mailings

As well as access to the events schedule so that you can put the dates in your diary and easily access Zoom links, you will receive priority mailings to let you know:

  • about upcoming events
  • when event recordings and related materials are uploaded
  • ... and much more!
