These are "Affiliate" and "Member". Since the beginning of 2009, all those who have had their applications approved by the National Committee have been allocated either affiliate membership or membership. During 2010, the National Committee will reallocate the Group membership to either affiliate or member status. Currently the criteria for this is whether the member is a member of IPENZ. The Group rules allows the National Commitee to also consider each member's experience and contribution to the profession when considering membership class.
