If I tell the IfA that my employer no longer provides CPD, they will give me the option of listing my bed time reading on a form, and charge me for the privilige. A comittment to CPD exists now, but is meaningless. Why would this change? Yes, I am certainly at risk of losing my job, but only in a medium-long term sort of way. I'll ask you again, what are these employment benefits that you mention?
If your employer is an RAO and is failing in its duty to provide the facilities such as CPD required by RAO status you should in the first instance ask your employer why that is. If they continue to fail to undertake their committment, you have the right to complain to the IfA. You don't have to be a member to do so...and there is no charge. (Not quite sure where you got that idea from!!). It seems that the resolution of this matter is entirely in your and your colleagues hands, if you care enough to do something about it.
With peace and consolation hath dismist, And calm of mind all passion spent...
