Dear Sarah,

Welcome to chartership!

In answer to you query most of the articles listed as recommended
reading by CILIP have been compiled by the Career Development Group into
a little book called "A chartership reader". It costs £12 and you can
download an order form on their website

http://www.careerdevelopmentgroup.org.uk/publishing.htm


You're absolutely right, many of the articles are now a bit old but
having read a few of them myself I think they're still quite relevant.
Of course things have changed a bit in the last 20 years and are
changing right now but I think the essence of the chartership process
remains pretty much the same. It would be nice, though, if some newly
chartered people wrote articles sharing their experiences so we could
add more up-to-date accounts to our reading.

So, come on you lovely MCLIPs out there, get writing!

As for general advice, I would seriously consider joining the Career
Development Group if you're not already a member. Whether you join or
not I think it's very important to check their website regularly since
it's packed with useful information for chartership candidates. It's
particularly good for finding out about events in your region,
especially chartership workshops.

I hope this helps.

Dear all,

I am just about to start thinking about doing something for my
Chartership. I have the purple book (Regulations etc.) and i have some
information i've printed out from the LA/CILIP website. I'm now trying
to get hold of some of the articles from the reading list, however, i
noticed some of the articles are really old (1980's!!). Ahs anyone got
any advice about where to get more up-to-date information, or any advice
for me at all?

I'd be very grateful for any advice anyone would be able to give to
me!

Thanks in advance,
