Membership
Join CABI free, and entirely at your own pace
Registration costs nothing and gives you the member area. Roles with responsibility for other people are approved separately.
Registration is handled on the current Community Assembly site.
What free membership includes
- Expanded educational resources and member articles
- Local assembly information and your area dashboard
- Event listings and booking
- Member newsletters and notices
- Volunteer and project opportunities
- Downloadable templates and introductory training
- The ability to submit a business or practitioner listing for review
Registering does not give access to internal assembly documents, member contact details or administrative tools. Those depend on an approved role.
The three levels of access
Public visitor
Everything needed to understand and judge CABI, with no account.
Free registered member
Community resources, local groups, events, newsletters and your own profile.
Role-based access
Facilitators, coordinators, practitioners, moderators and administrators each see only what their role requires.
