The Pensions Management Institute

The PMI Pathways is curated as a combination of full qualifications and some of our core units from the Advanced Diploma in Retirement Provision, representing five specialisations: Retirement Provision, Pensions Administration (Technical or Practical), Pensions Trusteeship and Pensions Benefits. Under the new Pathways, all learners will start their journey with the PMI as a student member. Successful completion of a full qualification* will give you eligibility for Professional membership status. A learner can then progress to Associateship after completing all exams listed under the pathway and holding Professional Membership for two straight years. After 5 years of continuous Associate Membership with CPD and demonstrable experience, you can then apply to become a Fellow. Please note Professional Membership is mandatory for two years for anyone who wants to apply for an Associate Membership. This will be in addition to completing all the relevant qualifications and combination of units under their chosen pathway. *Full qualification or five Advanced Diploma in Retirement Provision modules listed under the named Pathways.
