Become a Public Subscriber

Becoming a Public Subscriber with PIBC is an excellent opportunity for individuals with a general interest in planning who are not directly involved in planning and not eligible for any other category of membership to get connected with the profession, the Institute, and receive some of the Institute's services.

This includes students enrolled in any university programs which are not formally accredited by the Canadian Institute of Planners (CIP) & PIBC. Individuals directly involved in planning are not eligible to become Public Subscribers and should seek another appropriate membership category.

The following membership application form should only be used by eligible applicants who wish to become a Public Subscriber:
