Affiliate Membership (Partner Group)
In return for partner groups’ (PGs’) paying affiliation dues to NCIS, NCIS contributes to funding PG start-up costs and events
The NCIS partner group liaison officer ensures that information about PG events is up to date in NCIS news.
PG members can submit manuscripts to NCIS’s open-access, peer-reviewed online journal The Independent Scholar. Other benefits are detailed in this Benefits Comparison chart.
- PG Membership does not constitute NCIS membership, but PG members may apply for membership of NCIS as individuals. If accepted, they receive a $10 introductory refund on the first year's membership dues.
To apply for individual NCIS membership, first review the available levels and qualifications.
