It seems to me that the IFA is now an organisation for archaeological managers. To be become a full member you have to be in a management position.
Indeed The IFA has never been popular with diggers. In the 1980s ACT (Archaeologist Communicate and Transform) was set up and was quite successful for a while.
In the legal profession there are two professional institutes the law society and the Institute of legal executives. The former being for solistors and barristers and the latter for what were called legal secretaries. The legal executives are a parallel career structure to lawyers who undertake more routine legal work.
