All members have a voice in shaping the priorities of the College, sharing views and electing the board of Trustees. When you join as an Individual Member your investment will help us to continue to support our current activities, at home and abroad and establish amazing new projects.

Membership opens up the opportunity to engage with the College in other ways; be the first to hear about our exciting projects, access exclusive information and resources, and take advantage of a range of programmes and services at attractive members' rates. We offer two types of full membership: Individual and Student.

Additional Information

The Co-operative College is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO). Its rules include a learner representative and a colleague representative on the Board.

Learner Members are Individual Members who have taken part in a Co-operative College training programme in the last three years. The Learner Members form the constituency which elects the learner representative to the Board.

Individual Members who work for the Co-operative College are also Colleague Members and form the constituency that elects the colleague representative. We always announce the date of our AGM well in advance, both in our newsletter and across our social media channels.
