MEMBERSHIP IN THE CSCSC
Three Membership Classes
The CSCSC has three classes of members:
- Associate members
- Full members
- Pillar associations
Associate members are provided with access to all Council products and services, but have no voting rights in the Council. Individuals that are new to the Council join as associate members. At this level, they may participate in working groups or on committees, but are not eligible for membership on the Board of Directors. Any person that aspires to acquire voting rights or Board eligibility must first complete a year of associate membership, during which commitment to a Council activity or activities should be demonstrated. After a year at this level, an associate member may apply to become a full member.
Full members may vote at members meetings and are eligible to serve on the Council's Board of Directors.
Pillar associations have a special status with the Council. These are the six associations – APICS The Association for Operations Management, the Association of Canadian Community Colleges, CITT, the Canadian International Freight Forwarders Association, the Purchasing Management Association of Canada, and Supply Chain & Logistics Association Canada – that have been formative in the Council's development, committed to the idea of a supply chain sector council before the CSCSC existed. Each pillar association has a representative on the Board of Directors and full voting privileges.
Membership in the Council at any level is free of charge. Because it focuses on the Canadian supply chain labour market and encourages the active participation of members in its activities, membership in the Council is most appropriate for Canadian supply chain stakeholders.
