About Membership

Who can apply for Membership?

Membership is available at two levels:
a) Associate membership - for non-reporting organisations, service providers and academics.
b) Full membership - for reporting organisations, or those planning to report.

Membership is on annual subscription.

What are the benefits of Membership?

All members have access to the following:

1) Advanced searches. Instead of the single search field available to non-members, (our 'smart search'), members can choose from many drop-downs, giving comprehensive, precise searches. For example members may search by company name, by sector or sub-sector, year, country and in any combination. There are several additional search fields. Alternatively members may continue to use the 'smart search'.

2) Statistics. We have an extensive statistics section with over 150 individual charts illustrating the data in our database (growth over time, by country, sector, report types, assurance, use of frameworks...). Many of these charts are updated every few days. This content is unique and gives an overview of our directory of non-financial reporting over two decades.

3) PDF Search Tool. We index the content of our many tens of thousands of reports. You can search this content by individual word or phrase - an invaluable research tool.

See illustrations of these benefits in our latest CRRA report, available from our free downloads section or follow this link

In addition to these benefits, full members have access to the following:

4) Each full member will be linked to their specific business sector. This means full members will automatically join a group of reporting peers, and can contact each other should they wish to. They can also adjust their own settings, so if they do not wish to identify themselves and be open to contact, they can switch them off.

5) Full members will see a feed of new reports from their own sector - the best way to stay informed of what is happening.

6) In additional to the many charts available to all members, full members will have access to detailed charts and statistics for their own specific sector. These charts are not available anywhere else.

7) Full members will benefits from significant discounts on our services, such as our standard package for ReportAlerts and news.

8) We are developing a series of 'CR Sector Overviews' - these are downloadable reports, focussing on sectoral material issues. Indispensable for sustainability & communications professionals! Members have access to the report for their own sector. We will be developing reports for all major business sectors.
The currently available reports are:

9) We will soon be launching some exciting new reporting services for our full members.
