An Overview of CIPM

CIPM Ikeja Chapter, Lagos Branch of the Chartered Institute of Personnel Management of Nigeria formerly known as PPCA, Personnel Practitioners Consultative Association

CIPM, the Chartered Institute of Personnel Management of Nigeria, is the regulatory body for the practice of Human Resource Management in Nigeria. The Institute was established in 1968 and started as the Personnel Management Association of Nigeria and in 1973, it was renamed and has since taken on the current name – CHARTERED INSTITUTE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT OF NIGERIA.

The Institute was chartered by Decree No. 58 of 1992 and charged with the responsibility of regulating the practice of Human Resource Management in Nigeria. It was also mandated to promote excellence in the acquisition and application of knowledge and skills by practitioners, thereby contributing to sustainable National Development. The CIPM CHAPTERS were therefore established as a vital organ to the state branches in the discharge of this mandate.
