Membership Categories & Dues

We have listened to our members and we are streamlining our membership activities for increased gain to your return on investment, and fine-tuning of our strategic objectives.

  • Corporate – As a corporate member your organization receives every benefit. All the benefits you are used to receiving from ACORE, plus all-inclusive participation in general member webinars, publications, member activities, and regional roundtable events. New this year – Corporate members Levels 1 & 2 receive Leadership Council membership for one elected executive, a $2,500 value.
  • Academic – Academic memberships are available to all educational institutions. Academic members receive all of the benefits that corporate members do, including participation in general member webinars, publications, member activities, and regional roundtable events.
  • Government & Nonprofit­ - This membership category is designed to include all government agencies and non-academic organizations with a 501(c)(3) designation. The government & nonprofit category includes everything corporate and academic members have access to, as well as participation in general member webinars, publications, member activities, and regional roundtable events.
  • Individual – This year, after much demand, we are offering membership for individuals. The individual membership is one standard price, which provides you access to ACORE’s weekly Member Updates, all publications and member-only events, and use of the ACORE logo and affiliation.
