Institutional Membership

Application for Institutional Membership

CILECT is the organization of the world's film and television schools. Its major focus is on the teaching of film, television, video and digital image production. Membership is open to schools involved in the post secondary-level training of students to a professional level in the country in which they are located, and to research institutions whose programs of research are relevant to ClLECT's goals.

There are two categories of institutional membership:

  • Applicants for Full Membership shall be established film, television and/or new media educational and training institutions, recognized as higher education entities by the appropriate state authorities in their countries that train and educate students to a professional level. They must have been in existence for five years prior to the date of application. They must have appropriate staff, equipment, and finances. For a school to be accepted as an applicant for the status of full membership its presence at the General Assembly held during the period of its candidacy is obligatory.
  • Applicants for Partner Membership are organizations which are collaborating with CILECT.

Membership applications are reviewed permanently and the admission process involves five steps:

  1. Filling out the respective application documents and sending them to the Executive Director.
  2. (In case the review of the documents made by the Executive Director and the President is positive) Payment to CILECT of the EUR 690 assessment fee for visitation of the applicant institution by an Executive Council ambassador.
  3. Organizing the visit of the Executive Council ambassador to the school. After the visit the ambassador prepares a written report and presents it at the next Executive Council meeting.
  4. (In case the report is favorable and the Executive Council decides to propose the school for membership) Attend the next General Assembly of CILECT and prepare a presentation to help the members vote on the admission.
  5. Schools become CILECT members de facto upon receipt of first membership fee (Partner Members: EUR 690; Full Members: EUR 1,380 per year).
