Individual Membership or Corporate Membership?

The Arboretum offers two types of membership for potential members: an individual membership or a corporate membership. The type of membership you require will depend on the size of your organisation and the scope of consulting work you do.

An individual membership will suite a sole trader or small business where one person generally does the consulting work. With individual memberships, your business is still listed, however, you are the only ‘member’ tied to the program and you will be responsible for any work completed on referral from The Arboretum.

A corporate membership is appropriate for a partnership or small to medium sized organisation that work in teams to complete work. A corporate membership allows up to seven (7) individuals to represent the organisation through The Arboretum. These individuals can change over the course of the membership allowing greater flexibility in the membership.
