Become a Shareholder

Careerforce is a limited liability company and as such our members are referred to as ‘shareholders’.

Becoming a shareholder of Careerforce allows you to vote on governance issues at the Annual General Meeting and at any Special Meetings, and to take part in the elections for Board positions. It also gives you the opportunity to have input into Careerforce’s strategic direction.

Being a shareholder allows you to have your say on:

  • Skill standards and qualifications.
  • How training is supported.
  • Careerforce’s leadership role.

Shareholding in Careerforce does not make you liable for any debt incurred by the ITO, and does not provide a dividend payment.


Cost

The cost of becoming a shareholder is $1. An annual membership fee, as determined by the Board of Directors, is also payable. This is currently $100 plus GST.
