Group Memberships
There are two types of group membership available; they are similar, but each has a few very distinctive characteristics.

Organizational Memberships provide single billing and a dedicated NCMA staff member to administer your group and answer your questions. Organizational Memberships are priced on a sliding scale. The greater the number of memberships purchased, the greater the discount. This type of membership allows all members in the group to retain the same expiration date, and therefore one billing per year with prorations for those who join throughout the year.

Organizational Individual Memberships also provide a dedicated NCMA staff member to administer your group. However, they offer individual billing using the same sliding scale (based upon the number of people in your group). Each group member has his or her own expiration date, so prorations are not necessary.
