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. 30 days prior to our semi-annual meetings, the Association Membership is notified of the application and solicited for any comments about the applicant.
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 Board then places into nomination all applicants it is recommending for membership at the General Membership Meeting. If the Board does not place a company into nomination, any member in attendance may do so if they so wish.
7. The Membership then votes to approve or reject all applicants placed into nomination.
8. Applicants are requested to
attend the General Membership Meeting in which their application will be voted upon.9. All applicants MUST attend a session there for new members explaining our Code of Ethics.
10. Applicants may attend the semi-annual meetings at our discounted Member Rate as
opposed to the non-Member rate.
Thank you so much for applying for membership in the ASCDI.
