Become a member and gain enhanced professional status, receive on-going support, and be recognised globally as part of the world’s most engaged bookkeeping community

You can become a member of the world’s largest and most engaged bookkeeping community in two different ways; by assessment in ICB qualifications if you have no prior experience, or by exemption if you have relevant qualifications or work experience.¹

Membership by Assessment

Become a member by achieving ICB’s globally recognised qualifications. You can study at home or in the classroom with one of our award-winning training providers. ICB Certified Bookkeepers stand out from the crowd when applying for bookkeeping jobs or starting a bookkeeping business.
