UKGLTD Membership Badge Usage Policy
How active members may display their official UKGLTD membership badge.
Who may use a badge
Only a member whose membership is currently Active may display a UKGLTD membership badge, and only the single badge assigned to their own membership category. Applicants, expired, suspended or former members must not display any badge as current.
Permitted uses
Websites and professional profiles; email signatures; CVs; business cards; printed and digital marketing that accurately describes your membership; presentations and proposals. Each use should be placed near your name or organisation name and, where practical, include your membership number or a link to the UKGLTD membership verification page.
Required wording
Use accurate wording such as “Professional Member of UKGLTD” followed by your membership number. Do not describe membership as accreditation, certification, licensing, chartered status or regulated status.
Prohibited uses
Do not alter colours, wording, proportions or shape; do not combine the badge with other marks to create a new logo; do not use the badge on products, certificates you issue to others, or materials for courses you deliver in a way that suggests UKGLTD endorsement; do not claim government recognition, UKAS accreditation, Ofqual regulation or any regulated professional status; do not use a badge of a category you do not hold.
Print and digital specifications
Use only the approved PNG files downloaded from your account. Keep a clear space around the badge at least equal to 10% of its width. Minimum display size: 25 mm (print) or 80 px (screen). Do not stretch or crop.
Expiry, suspension and revocation
When your membership expires, is suspended or is terminated, your permission ends immediately. You must remove the badge from digital channels within 14 days and stop distributing printed materials that display it. Continued use may lead to refusal of future membership and legal action.
Verification
Third parties may check your current status at the UKGLTD membership verification page using your membership number. UKGLTD will report the true current status.
