Thank you in advance,
Igor.

Hi Igor

• Referees should be of responsible position (e.g. your employer, teacher, line-manager,
supervisor, editor, client) and able to comment on your language proficiency and
professional standard.
• Your referees will need to be able to comment upon use of your language(s) of
qualification, i.e. not your mother tongue, and you should make them aware of this. If we
have not received a reply from your referees after three weeks from contacting them, we
will ask you to provide an alternative referee.
• If you are applying for Membership (MCIL) or Fellowship (FCIL), at least one reference
should, if possible, relate to recent employment.

Good luck!
