2. Message From
The Chair
When presented with the opportunity to be the inaugural Chair of the Institute of
Recruiters - IOR, I considered it an incredible honour to be part of a new
organisation that could bring so much value to members. I am extremely proud of
the IOR’s vision, to be a hub of best practice, knowledge sharing, and a way to
“
connect members globally.
When presented with the IOR’s mission, I
can honestly say that during my 20 years in
recruitment I have never witnessed such an
impressive agenda backed up by both
incredible energy and capability.
Helen Charles Morgan
True innovation is easy to talk about but very hard to achieve, the IOR has set bold
ambitions and is innovating in every area. When presented with the IOR’s mission, I
can honestly say that during my 20 years in recruitment I have never witnessed such
an impressive agenda backed up by both incredible energy and capability. I look
forward to working with the IOR's talented executive team to create value and
opportunity for members.
As we emerge from the one of the worst recessions in living memory, the IOR
represents a new era and a new way of doing things. Forget what you have seen in
the past from industry bodies and what they have offered, the IOR will set a new
agenda, new offerings and services that are ground breaking and innovative,
delivering a return for your membership support that is unprecedented, and
exceeds your expectations.
I look forward to working with all of you and together we can build a sustainable
incredible sector that connects us all globally, opening up new channels of business
for us all.

10. Education,
Training & CPD
We offer a range of qualifications that cater for new entrants to the sector, right up to
consultants and managers at all levels. Whether you are looking to further develop
your knowledge and skills or a qualification that accredits your existing
competence, we have what you need.
The IOR is working with several
partners to develop a placement
program for trainees to include a
rotation placement covering three
disciplines, HR, Corporate
Resourcing and Agency
Recruitment. The three individual
rotation placements will be for
between 2 to 4 weeks each and will
cover various training components,
meaning the entire rotation could
be for as long as 3 months in total.
The placements will allow trainees to better understand the holistic candidate
process and the challenges faced from different perspectives.
The program forms part of a larger matrix of IOR certified training
and education (Qualification Matrix) which includes:
• CPD
• Workshops
• Taught Modules (on site or distance via VLE - online Virtual Learning
Environment)
• Work Placement Rotations
Professional IOR Certified Apprenticeships are also being
developed for 3 main areas:
• HR Manager
• Corporate Resourcing Manager (corporate/In-House Recruiter)
Resourcing Partner (Agency Consultant)
