Associate membership in SATW is limited to those persons professionally engaged in media relations within the travel industry and working regularly with the media.
According to the Society bylaws, the number of Associate members in the Society must always be less than the number of Active members. Thus, there could conceivably be a time when Associate Membership will not be available to new members.
Individual Associate Membership
Associate members who join as individuals must submit a letter of employment verification that includes:
- Job title
- Tourism entity or entities you (the applicant) represent
An individual Associate membership stays with the member, not the employer. It is not transferable.
Individual Associate Membership Application Fee: $50 US
Individual Associate Membership Annual Dues: $390 US
Memberships runs from January-December. For members who join during the year, the second year will be prorated based on when they joined.
