The Chartered Institute of Transport and the Institute of Logistics & Transport merged in 2002 to form the Chartered Institute of Logistics & Transport. The principal objective of the Institute is “To promote the art and science of logistics and transport in Ireland”.

The Institute achieves this objective through both its membership and its educational qualifications, which are invaluable to an individual’s career. The Institute is a membership-based organisation with over 30,000 members in over 30 countries. There are three regional branches, each branch meets regularly to discuss matters of local and national interest, as well as organizing the dynamic regional membership programmes and activities.
