There are three levels of membership:

Professional Member: A person is eligible for professional membership if a significant proportion of their activities are devoted to neuropsychology or related fields (e.g., psychology, rehabilitation psychology, neuroscience, medicine, speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, etc.) and they possesses the qualifications (degrees, certifications, or other requirements) consonant with their profession in the country of origin. Professional members have the power to vote in Society elections and may hold office in the Society. Professional membership dues range from $36 – $180 depending on country of residence.
In-Training Member: A person is eligible for in-training membership if they are currently actively pursuing a degree (Doctoral degree, Bachelor’s degree, or equivalent) at a degree-granting institution or currently serving in a post-doctoral fellowship, internship, or residency program. In-training members do not have the power to vote in Society elections and may not hold office in the Society. Once a member completes their training and becomes a practicing professional, their membership should be upgraded to a professional membership. In-training membership may be maintained for a maximum of 6 years. In-Training membership dues range from $11 – $54 depending on country of residence.
Emeritus Membership: An individual who has been a member of the Society for at least 10 years, has reached the age of 65 and has retired from active practice may qualify for emeritus membership. Emeritus members may vote in elections and may hold office in the Society. Emeritus membership dues range from $18 – $90 depending on country of residence.

INS Tiered Dues Structure

As a part of the 2015 INS Strategic Plan, efforts have been underway to increase the international presence of INS as a scientific and educational organization and to recognize its multinational membership. As many of you know, INS has been increasing access to special issues in related journals and new book and journal discounts. In addition, at the 2016 Boston meeting, the INS Membership Task Force was charged with generating a tiered dues structure reflecting the income diversity among the membership in various parts of the world. Based on the recommendations of the Membership Task Force at the subsequent 2016 London meeting, the Board of Governors approved a new tiered dues structure, and at the 2017 New Orleans meeting agreed to implement these changes with the rollout of the new INS Website in 2017. The changes in dues are based on the World Bank classification of Country Income Groups, which can be found at http://chartsbin.com/view/2438.

Tiered Dues Structure: Discounts for Professional and In-Training Members in High, Middle, Low-Middle, and Low-Income countries are based on a percentage of the dues for members in High Income Countries using World Bank Country Income classification. Adjusted amounts will be rounded to the nearest USD.

Professional Members:

High-Income countries: 180 USD
High-Middle-Income countries: 50% of Dues for High Income category
Low-Middle-Income/Low-Income countries: 20% of Dues for High Income category

In-Training Members:
