NSPRA offers the following five membership types:

$295/year: Professional-level members receive all membership materials, benefits, and access to resources, and are eligible to vote and run for office. Professional-level members also are eligible to become Accredited in Public Relations (APR) through the Universal Accreditation Board (UAB). Join here.

The School District Professional Subscription service is offered for one (1) employee of a district that has policies prohibiting individual association memberships. The subscription provides for one person the same benefits as a professional membership; it is not a multi-person subscription. Join here.

A paid, active membership granted to a particular person in a school district/organization may be transferred to a different person within that same school district/organization for the remaining term of the membership only upon the request of the person originally granted the membership; membership is held by a person, not by the person's employer.

$295/year: A person who has professional responsibilities in educational public relations in a for-profit capacity may become a NSPRA professional partner. Professional partners may apply to become candidates for Universal Accreditation but may not vote and are not eligible to hold office. Join here.
