APICS Membership Dues Structure

The APICS Board of Directors approved a new membership dues structure beginning April 1, 2008. The focus for APICS continues to be on providing the value that members seek to improve their on-the-job performance, advance in their careers, and thrive as operations management professionals. The new dues structure will provide greater support and resources to APICS partners (chapters, districts, and IAs) who deliver programs locally.

The APICS Board of Directors approved the following membership dues structure, effective April 1, 2008.

• Member association dues are $150 for professional members. Professional members belonging to chapters and now associates will pay a fee of $50 for the chapter/associate portion, for a total dues amount of $200 for professional members. (If a chapter charges more, APICS will collect the additional amount on behalf of the chapter.)
• The dues are $200 for domestic members-at-large (who do not belong to a chapter), and for international members-at-large (who are not members of an international associate).
• The dues amount for retired members is $75, plus chapter dues if applicable. There are no changes to academic, student, and international associate fees.
• The enterprise membership has a tiered structure. APICS offers enterprise members the opportunity to add additional members based on a sliding scale (illustration below). The current group membership structure will be phased out and current group members will transition to enterprise members as memberships come up for renewal.

Enterprise Membership/Group Membership (Effective 2Q 2008)

The new dues structure support will enhance the capabilities of APICS partners with support from corporate office-funded field staff, funding to deliver enhanced member benefits and services locally, and new and enhanced tools and resources for chapter leaders.

APICS will continue to enhance association programs and services. Already, members can take advantage of new and enhanced benefits in 2008. Read more about your member benefits online at apics.org/membership.
