What happens after I submit my application for Membership in the Association

1. After a prospect sends us their application, the Association office contacts the references given.

2. In November and May, the Association Membership is notified of the application and solicited for any comments.

3. The application, the references and the comments from our Members are submitted to the Membership Committee Meeting for review.

4. The Membership Committee reviews the information and votes to either recommend the application to the Board or not.

5. The Board reviews the recommendation of the Membership Committee and then votes to either accept it or reject it.

6. The ASCDI Office then sends out a vote to the membership in June and December of all recommended applicants.

7. The Membership then votes to approve or reject all applicants placed into nomination.

8. All applicants MUST attend a session there for new members explaining our Code of Ethics.

9. Applicants may attend the all ASCDI meetings at our discounted Member Rate as opposed to the non-Member rate.
