The global standards for the profession, the profession map is designed to help internal communicators identify the key knowledge, skills and behaviours required to achieve our core purpose - to enable people at work to feel informed, connected and purposeful in order to drive organisational performance. 

By striving to obtain requisite knowledge and skills, and to embody essential behaviours – through CPD, education and lifelong learning – the IoIC believes that all internal communication professionals will play a pivotal in supporting organisations achieve their objectives.
