To attain membership to the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators, an applicant would be required to be a member of a recognized discipline or calling in which recourse to Arbitration and other forms of ADR is an accepted method of resolving disputes.
The Introductory Courses, commonly referred to as the Entry Courses are either one or two day programs that provide the skeleton for the selected dispute resolution mechanism of choice. Apass in the subsequent post-course assessment leads to election to Associate membership of the institute. Further training is provided and private study encouraged to upgrade membership to Member, Fellow and Chartered Arbitrator grades
