The '''Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport''' (CILT) is a [[professional body]] representing the [[transport]] and [[logistics]] industries worldwide. It is a membership-based organisation with over 30,000 members in over 40 countries. This international body is sometimes known as '''CILT International''' to distinguish it from the [[#Representation|national councils, sections and branches]].
The principal objective of the CILT is "To promote and encourage the art and science of logistics and transport", which it achieves both through its membership and [[professional certification|professional qualifications]]. It provides extensive opportunities for training and learning opportunities with a range of internationally recognised qualifications and courses.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.ciltinternational.org/education-development/international-courses/|title=International courses - CILT|access-date=9 June 2018}}</ref>

In 1999 the Chartered Institute of Transport and the Institute of Logistics (IoL) combined activities to become the Institute of Logistics and Transport (IOLT). In 2004 "chartered" was adopted into the title, which now reads Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport.
== Membership and Chartered membership ==
The Institute of Logistics and Transport offers six grades of membership: Associate, Student, Affiliate, Member (MILT), Chartered Member (CMILT) and Chartered Fellow (FCILT).<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.ciltinternational.org/membership/individual-cilt-membership/membership-levels/|title=Membership Levels - CILT|access-date=9 June 2018}}</ref>
Chartered Membership is the institute's senior professional grade of membership. Only professional bodies that have been granted the royal charter can award chartered membership, such as: Chemical, Electrical, Civil, and Mechanical Engineers; Certified, Chartered, Public Finance Accountants; and Surveyors. CILT's Chartership is of equivalent standing to these, and applying for it requires demonstrating achievement of educational attainment, professional competence and (CPD) to a panel. A Chartered Member is awarded the [[post-nominal letters]] CMILT.
Chartered Members who have attained important positions or have had distinguished careers can be nominated for Fellowship, with the post-nominal letters FCILT.
