ISCB Multi Year and Lifetime Membership Categories
ISCB multi year and lifetime memberships offers As an alternative to the single year membership ISCB has always offered, we are now also offering the option of a multiple-year membership for up to 5 years from the date of registration, or a lifetime membership that will never expire. The following restrictions apply to the multi-year and lifetime membership categories:
- Multi-year and lifetime membership categories are only available at the Professional level, and are offered among the registration options after selecting Professional as the membership category.
- All the membership benefits of the one-year membership category apply to the multi-year and lifetime membership categories.
- The ISCB will invoice additional charges in cases where a member moves from a country with low or middle income dues to a country with middle or high income dues, respectively. The according country list is available on the ISCB portal site based on the World Bank list of economies.
- The additional membership fees will be calculated on a yearly pro rata base.
- The ISCB will not refund fees for the reverse case where a member moves from a high or middle income dues country to a middle or lower income dues country, respectively.
- A change in the economy classification of a country by the World Bank in a subsequent year will not result in a change in dues for the duration of existing multi-year or lifetime memberships.
- The multi-year and lifetime memberships are non-refundable in the event of a membership cancellation at any time after purchase.
- ISCB will cover costs in cases where the ISCB adds benefits to the general membership package (provided with the one-year membership) and which generate additional internal costs to the ISCB (e.g. additional sponsored journal subscriptions).
