How to Join - Membership Levels

Membership at the IA Institute is on a subscription basis. Subscriptions allow members access to all the benefits stated above as well as additional programs and benefits throughout the year. Members can join online, a variety of payment options is available. Purchase an additional year of IAI membership and get save bucks! 

We've recently updated our membership fee levels to both simplify the sign up process and expand payment options. Our new system is as follows:

Professional

This is the most basic Information Architecture Institute subscription with access to all the member benefits. 

Student

To encourage students to get involved in IAI as they study, we offer a discounted membership with all of the benefits of the individual subscription. Students must verify their enrollment in program of student before membership is valid. 

Group

IAI offers a group membership option to businesses and organizations and includes the same benefits as an individual membership. This level is here to help decrease the amount of time spent on signup. 

When group representative signs up, we create  new accounts for each group member allowing them to list their information in our directory and sign up for our members-only discussion list. Group membership is limited to 8 users - a savings of two individual membership subscriptions per group.
