Our Values

FIPI aspires to have a significant impact on the image profession. Our values of Community, Support, Sustainability, and Excellence are central to everything we do.

 

Community

We know that together, we are stronger.

We share common goals, which makes facing challenges, overcoming obstacles, and celebrating successes easier. We raise the bar and achieve our goals together, through mutual respect, collaboration, and ambition.

 

Support

Given freely and widely we know that support is essential to encourage and motivate our aspiring colleagues.

Our friendly community nurtures a culture of shared information, advice and valuable knowledge through collaboration and connectivity. No matter where you are geographically we consider every FIPI member part of the family.

We offer a broad spectrum of formal support with our Master’s qualification and our Mentorship program. Plus we have more informal groups including our monthly events, newsletters and workshops.

Sustainability

We’re passionate about fostering change and developing innovative solutions that engage consumers and influence the industry.

Education and awareness are crucial in allowing us to strike the balance that ensures we can continue doing the work we love without negatively impacting our planet.

From manufacturing and marketing through to distribution, environmental and socio-economic changes must be made sooner rather than later to create a sustainable future.

 

Excellence

We aspire towards excellence. Striving daily to surpass standards and expectations the FIPI community are encouraged to challenge the industry and their peers to become leaders in service, product and performance quality. 

We believe that aiming for progress, not perfection allows us to continually question ‘Can we do better?’

"The Master's program has drastically helped my business to expand and gain trust from my clients, knowing they are in good hands. I hope you will take that step too. Trust me, you will not regret it."

Toshiko Kobatake. FIPI Member and Master's Graduate.

"I would encourage every single individual who is serious about their business to become fully qualified as a Master. Why? Because my belief is that this will ensure not only technical competence, but it also drives personal confidence and ensures professional success."

Sarah Brummitt. FIPI Member and Masters Graduate

"Well, I have done it! I have achieved the Master Status in Image Consultancy and I can tell you now there are only 18 of us in the whole wide world! I am accredited by City & Guilds and also by FIPI. Delighted is an understatement!"

Jo Haley. FIPI Member and Masters Graduate
