Becoming an ICAPE member
To avoid conflicts of interest
with affiliated groups, only organizations can join ICAPE; memberships are
not available to individuals. Individuals are welcome to participate in
ICAPE conferences. We also encourage people to consider participating in
one or more of the organizations that make up ICAPE, if they do not
already [see the "ICAPE associates" area of this website].
I. An
ASSOCIATION may choose its level of participation according to the
following scale:
| #
of members in association |
Fee |
Level of representation on ICAPE board |
|
n.a. |
$10 |
1
observer |
|
1-100 |
$100 |
1
director |
|
101-200 |
$200 |
1
director |
|
201-500 |
$300 |
2
directors |
|
501-1000 |
$800 |
2
directors |
|
1001+ |
$1000 |
3
directors |
IMPORTANT NOTE: An
association may choose a level of payment and representation below its
actual membership level. For example, a group comprised of 501 members may
choose to join at the $800 level (allowing them to appoint 2 Directors to
the Board), the $300 level (with the same level of representation), the $200
level (allowing them to appoint 1 Director to the Board), the $100 level
(again allowing 1 Director), or the $10 level (allowing only an Observer).
Observers may
attend Board of Directors’ meetings, but are prohibited from voting.
Directors are
fully-participating members of the Board.
II.
A
GROUP (journal, publisher, department, institute, project) may choose to
pay $200 (˝ that if group is nonprofit) and be represented by a Director,
or $10 if the Observer level is preferred.
