Chapter 21. Company Membership Signup

Overview

The Company Membership Signup page allows companies to review and apply for organization memberships. Companies can select from the available memberships, fill out company information and add company representatives. This application may then be sent for moderator approval, which may be dependent on the receipt of legal forms or fees. Finally, the application form presents applicants with a status page indicating the current status of their membership application and any information or directions about what happens next.

Use the Company Membership Signup page to:

  • Review the various memberships available with the organization.

  • Apply for memberships that are available for your company and that suit your needs.

How to Signup for a Company Membership

Review and Select a Membership

This page provides a list of all the memberships available with the organization along with descriptions of all the memberships. The eligibility criteria and benefits may also be displayed. The memberships could be two tiered having primary and dependent memberships. To apply for a dependent membership, you need to have the primary membership. The primary and dependent memberships will be displayed in conjunction. To view the complete description of the dependent membership, click the membership name link. The membership fee and time frame may be displayed. The same membership could be available for different fees and for different time frames. Review the list carefully and select a membership by clicking on the primary membership name link.

Select Memberships

You may be eligible to apply for multiple memberships. All the memberships that are available in combination with the membership that you selected will be displayed on this page. The previously chosen membership will be preselected. Choose all the desired memberships and click Select.

Terms and Conditions

The terms and conditions for obtaining membership with the organization may be displayed. Read them carefully and accept or reject them by clicking on the appropriate buttons. If you accept the terms, you will be asked to fill out the membership form on the next page. If you do not accept the terms, you will not be able to continue applying for membership.

Apply for a new membership

The membership application form will be presented here. Enter various company details such as name and url. Enter the complete company name. This will later help representatives from your company to quickly search the name and get a membership account.

You may also be asked to fill in contact information for some company representatives. Enter atleast one Company Representative (which could be yourself as Company Administrator) since login instructions will be sent to that email address once your membership becomes current. For many organizations, the company administrators's email address must be your official company-issued email address. If you do not have an email address, contact administration to receive a user account with a username and password.

The memberships that you selected will be displayed for your review.

In the Preferences section, select your privacy option. This will determine if your company will be listed on the signup form for representatives of your company to get membership accounts. Selecting No here will ensure that individuals cannot themselves signup for membership accounts through your company. You can sign them up through the organization administrator section.

Once you receive membership with the organization, you will be able to edit the above information.

Membership Status

After filling the membership application form, you may be asked to pay a membership fee. After entering the payment information, you can go to the status page. If the membership is pending moderation or is current, you will be taken directly to the status page.
