If you have more than five years of superior responsibility, you may be eligible for transfer to Fellow (FRINA), which is the highest class of membership of the Institution. The letters FRINA after your name will provide an internationally recognised and respected demonstration of your professional achievements.
To apply for transfer to FRINA, you should complete the attached application form and return it with a separate Professional Review Report of your professional activities, with particular emphasis on your level of responsibility during the past five years. I am sure your CV/Resume will form the basis of this Report, but it should contain sufficient details about your professional activities to enable the Membership Committee to assess the level of your responsibility. You may also submit an updated version of the Report you submitted with your application for MRINA. The proposers for your application need not be members of the Institution, but colleagues who have knowledge of your present position.
If elected FRINA, the difference in Annual Membership Fee will not become due until 2017.
I have attached Guidance Notes on Applying for Fellow. If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Kind regards,
Trevor Blakeley
Chief Executive
RINA, UK
