Membership

Active membership of an individual participating in chapter functions is the most prominent kind of membership.

Member-at-large membership, now called Division Chapter Membership, is the category for those graduates who are not affiliated with an organized chapter. Many of our members live in an area where there is no Carnegian Chapter at this time, but they receive all publications and educational training booklets to use as they see fit. An effort has been made to serve these members better with the publication of home/ library study guides and motivational reading material known as the Individual Participation Program, a specialized part of our Self Directed Growth Program.

Transfer of membership is made convenient to all members. Once International dues have been paid for the year, the member may transfer his membership to another chapter merely by calling on the chapter, signifying his desire to join and meeting their chapter's local due's obligation for the remainder of their annual dues period.

Delinquent members lose voting rights immediately after expiration of their membership, however, name plates are held in the International Office files for a period of 90-days during which time they continue to receive the publications. After 90-days the name plate is pulled from active files.

Members must be in good standing in order to compete in contests, and to vote in elections at all levels.
