Celebrating Membership Strengths

Our recent ATAINZ Member Survey, answered by 182 members, revealed a diverse range of experiences within ATAINZ. Overall, 81% of the members rated our performance positively, but also highlighted some excellent opportunities for growth.

Key strengths highlighted by our members:

Support and Networking
Members appreciated the strong support network ATAINZ provides. From not feeling alone to benefiting from shared resources and professional development, the camaraderie among members is a significant strength. The recognition by the IRD of the Institute further validates the value of membership.
I was with CAANZ in the past and had no support at all. ATAINZ has great support for its members and is working to improve its processes for the future members. I’m looking forward to the developments that the board are talking about for the future.

IRD see ATAINZ as a professional body up with CAANZ, and you should belong to a professional body. Especially If you are not a Chartered Accountant.
