I also like the idea, but I have two observations. 1. CILIP would have to publish their 'recommended rate' list, along with the relevant skills appropriate for each level - I would like to see such a list anyway. It would help with CPD aims and objectives as well. 2. Job descriptions and (especially) titles vary so much between organisations that I think there would probably have to be a certain amount of standardisation for the ratings to be clear. One side-effect would be the increased amount of time on the part of the editors of the Gazette in undertaking this - but there again, at least we would see our membership fees usefully at work.

I like the Kite mark idea - perhaps it could be very explicit: "This post is advertised at below the recommended rate" "This post is advertised at or above the recommended rate" Chris Armstrong National Councillor ********************************************************************** The views and comments expressed in this email are confidential to the recipients and should not be passed on to others without permission.
