Is it possible that each member (in this case a member of staff) can acces thier own member profile via the CMS rather than have to make content pages that allows them to update their?
Members (frontend) can't update their profile from the frontend unless you provide an interface to update their profile. Members can't access the backend...
No Dirk you understood correctly...my website will inlude a staff profiles section which the admin will need to manage(all of them) via the members section, just thought i could lighten the load on the admin user and allow each staff member to mange thier own profile. Would it be easy enough to build it into the front end, are there any wiki or packages out there that show examples?
Members details managed by the members

Or did I misunderstand the question?

Thanks for the reply.

i think you may find a package(s) in the /project section that does more or less what you want to achieve...

May not be a perfect fit, but could be a good starting point...
