ACP Appreciation Luncheon |
Membership |
|
|
 |
Membership is open to professionals and individuals
interested in the field of contingency planning, business continuity
and emergency management, and other similar disciplines. To further
enhance the industry, all members adhere to the ACP Code of Ethics.
Also, all members in good standing have voting rights on issues affecting
the ACP.
One frequent inquiry (FAQs) involves membership dues.
The cost of chapter membership usually comprises corporate and local dues
combined, and is assessed annually by the ACP Corporate. All ACP chapters
establish their own local chapter dues. Differences in dues structures
typically represent variations in local economies, costs associated with
providing direct member services and benefits, and member preferences.
However, for any individual without convenient access to the nearest chapter—
an unaffiliated ACP general membership is available for $75 annually
(United States applicants, includes territories) or $100 annually
(international applicants).
If you are considering an ACP membership, there is no
better investment or greater return. One of many reasons members cite
for joining or renewing a membership is the hands-on approach towards “Setting the Trend”
that occurs at the local and national levels. This unique feature
makes the ACP a premier organization as compared to others.
The ACP would like very much for you to become a member. Joining is easy.
Simply follow the membership instructions listed in the following section.
Please contact the ACP at 1-800-445-4ACP if you require additional assistance.
