There are CIPM Branches across Nigeria, where Personnel Practitioners meet in pursuance of the Institute’s objectives of promoting and developing the science and practice of personnel management in all its ramifications.

Each branch has its executive members that direct and coordinate the affairs of their Branch. There are in addition, groupings of practitioners at zonal levels called the Personnel Practitioners Consultative Association or PPCA.

Members belong to a branch, usually electing to join the branch in the area in which they live; although any member may belong to any branch of their choice.
