Joining and Starting an IIBA Chapter
There are 120+ chapters in over 40 countries worldwide. Local Chapters support IIBA Members and help them grow professionally through events, networking and volunteer opportunities, study groups, mentorship, and more.
Chapter Events
Your membership is a global pass to hundreds of events from Chapters around the world, in every time zone and in numerous languages. Participation earns CDUs toward your certification.
Start a Chapter
A minimum of three IIBA Members must coordinate start-up activities and at least 20 must form the new Chapter’s membership.
Start-Up Toolkit
IIBA Connections
If there is no IIBA Chapter in your area, IIBA Connections acts as your Chapter in your IIBA Profile until you choose a Chapter to be associated with or a Chapter opens in your area.

Although IIBA Members can access every chapter in the world, they are affiliated with only one in their profile—think of it as your home base! This is typically the chapter they interact with most, but it can be changed at any time.
When you join IIBA, you can choose your chapter affiliation. If you don’t, you’re assigned one near you. If there isn’t one near you, you’re assigned to IIBA’s Connections.
IIBA Connections acts as a placeholder in your IIBA Profile until you choose an existing Chapter to be associated with or a Chapter opens in your area.
Join Events and Use Resources from Different Chapters
Members are welcome to interact with any IIBA Chapter, no matter which one they’re assigned to. Sign into any Chapter website using your iiba.org login to access Chapter-specific news, events, and resources.
