Available only to those who have completed the PIPA Accreditation Program, and held alongside an individual or corporate membership.
Corporate membership
One membership, priced by the size of your team.
A corporate membership covers your whole firm under one account. There are three levels. Above Level 2 the cover grows in blocks of five people, so a firm pays for the team it actually has rather than jumping a whole band. Every figure below includes GST.
Blocks are sold in fives, so a team of 23 buys one block and has room for 25. Add a block part way through the year and you pay only the remainder of that year.
Level 1, up to 10 people
$795
a year, GST included
Covers up to 10 people, which is $79.50 each.
The three levels
| Level | People covered | A year | Each person |
|---|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | 1 to 10 people | $795 | $79.50 at 10 people |
| Level 2 | 11 to 20 people | $1,395 | $69.75 at 20 people |
| Level 3 | Unlimited | $8,800 | Falls as the firm grows |
Above Level 2, cover is added in blocks of five people at $330 for each block. From 21 to 130 people a firm buys the blocks it needs. At 131 people, Level 3 Unlimited is the lower price.
Examples above Level 2
| People covered | Membership | A year | Each person |
|---|---|---|---|
| 25 | Level 2 plus 1 block of five | $1,725 | $69.00 |

| 60 | Level 2 plus 8 blocks of five | $4,035 | $67.25 |
