The IAC Membership Program
The IAC membership program offers individuals
the opportunity to express their support of the ideas and ideals
of conscientiology by helping the organization in meeting its goals
and objectives. This program is available in all IAC offices. In
Portugal and Spain, it is available under the IAC cardholders program.
Members obtain specific benefits in accordance with the category
of membership they select.
Benefits common to all categories include:
(1) periodical bulletins detailing the organization's work, related
news, and forthcoming events; and
(2) a subscription to the Journal
of Conscientiology, a quarterly scientific forum for the
publication of research papers and articles examining a range of
themes related to study of the consciousness. Published contributions
are made by a broad spectrum of individuals, including IAC researchers
and members as well as scientists and researchers affiliated with
other organizations around the world.
The program offers four membership
categories:
The Sponsor Member category
is aimed at those who wish to make an extra contribution to support
IAC’s work. This category provides maximum privileges available,
including the above mentioned as well as discounts on courses, seminars,
and books published by the IAC and its affiliated organizations,
and participation in special meetings (available in some centers).
Yearly contribution requested by Sponsor members is US$150.00
(members can donate any additional amount over the basic cost they
wish, at their discretion).
Major Membership offers
those unable to contribute to the same extent as a Sponsor member
the opportunity to benefit from exactly the same range of privileges,
based on the contribution of a smaller amount.
Basic Membership provides
a similar range of discounts and subscription to the Journal
but excludes participation in the special meetings.
The fourth category, Associate Membership,
is designed for those who simply wish the subscription to the Journal,
without receiving discounts on events and courses. Discounts on
IAC publications are available to Associate members.
The contributions made through the membership program form a vital
part of the financial support that enables the organization to carry
out research and improve its educational activities. These improvements
enable IAC to deepen its assistance and clarification of members
and non-members around the world.
