I gather from speaking to a few people, that the IfA desire to attract more academics to its ranks, presumably the levels of membership will have to get some rewriting as I imagine academics might not have have directly comparable experience to the current terms. Presumably individuals research will be used as a guide to what level they can join at, but for example if they are an environmentalist, do they get less 'points' for working with sediment cores that don't require big excavations or complex project management (clearly some projects do but not always) but still allow them to undertake high quality research, relating to high levels of personal responsibilty.
