Membership Information
The International Academy of Collaborative Professionals (IACP) is a global resource for learning about and promoting Collaborative Practice. Membership in IACP is open to anyone. While most members are legal, mental health or financial professionals, we also welcome members who are not in these fields to join IACP in order to support the vision of the Collaborative Practice movement.
GLOBAL IMPACT: A local and global voice for change
By joining IACP, you’ll become part of the greater good. You will connect with other Collaborative Professionals with whom you can exchange best practices and create positive change. Within the framework of this community, you will get the support you need to reach your full potential as a Collaborative Practitioner; you will be part of something bigger as together we change the way in which conflict is resolved throughout the world.
