IPA Membership

We are delighted you are considering becoming a member of IPA Scotland.

We have several membership categories available for the IPA Scotland branch. Details can be found below. Please note that membership of IPA Scotland also gives you membership of IPA World, and that the membership is administered directly by them.

The following link will bring you to IPA World’s membership portal; they use a system called Wild Apricot.

All members receive:

  • One year membership from when you join
