RedR Register |
Do I have to be an
engineer to join RedR?
No, you do not have to be an engineer to join RedR. See criteria for joining
for more details.
What does RedR expect
from me as a Member?
A long-term commitment to humanitarian work; availability for assignments
in humanitarian work; effective preparation for assignment, e.g. by regular
attendance at training courses;high professional and personal standards when
working on assignment;support to other members, e.g. in their preparation
or return; help in supporting the organisation, e.g. by helping with fundraising,
publicity or training.
What language abilities
do I need to join the register?
All RedR members must have a good working knowledge of English. There is also
a good demand for those competent in: French,
Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Russian.
Where can I be interviewed?
Details of interview locations are published here and if there is sufficient
demand interviews will be arranged practically anywhere in the world.
How long do members
stay on the register?
We regard membership as a long term commitment and recognise that members
may not be available for assignments for extended periods.
Many such members however make important contributions to RedR's work in other
ways.
Can I apply for RedR
membership through more than one office?
No, a candidate
should apply for RedR register membership through one accredited office only.
Practical considerations would normally mean that this would be the office
best placed to interview the candidate.
At the time of applying
a candidate will be asked to confirm whether they have applied for RedR register
membership through any other RedR office. If the answer is yes, that office
will be consulted before the application is taken forward.
Once accepted the member is a RedR register member through the office that accepted them. That office will maintain the member's file and should be the member's first point of contact on all RedR business - including shared assignment requests.
A member may ask to have their register membership and file moved to another accredited RedR office - but there would have to be a good reason (e.g. moving to that country, new RedR organisation in that country etc.).
Both the "old"
and "new" office would need to consider the transfer; the "new"
office would have the final say as to whether to accept a transfer and under
what conditions (updated CV, more recent referees etc.). If a transfer is
agreed, the member and file move to the "new" office lock, stock
and barrel. There should be no duplication of register membership or files.
