Silver & Gold Leaf Points Tracking & Application Form (Form)

Gold and Silver Leaf members in good standing are eligible to request a one year leave of absence from membership with Professional Organizers in Canada (POC) due to personal or professional reasons, with the option to extend the leave for one additional year (to a maximum of two years).

You will not need to provide a reason for the request.

Each request must be approved by the Director of Membership.

A member on leave will cease to be a member of POC, and will not have access to any member benefits until their membership is renewed.

The leave of absence will allow Gold and Silver Leaf members to retain their status upon their return to POC.

Should the absence extend past two years, the member will lose their status.
